I'm not convinced that was what killed him. It was actually a mark in his favor, as far as I can recall it (I was 10 at the time--though interested, in a fairly un-nuanced way).
Problem was, the novelty of his being an honest politician just wasn't enough to overcome his having the television presence of a manatee.
