Politics and law Other Walter Mondale’s mentor, senator and former vice president Hubert Humphrey, was known as the Happy Warrior. The nickname is more appropriate for Mondale, who died Monday at 93. He was also a successful warrior, right up until the disastrous 1980 Carter-Mondale reelection campaign. Mondale had run several important campaigns for giants of Minnesota politics before being appointed and reelected as the state’s attorney general and appointed and twice reelected as a U.S. senator. Carter tapped him in 1976 as his running mate for his successful run for the White House. Then came 1980: the Democrats lost in all but six states plus Washington, D.C. Victories in the candidates’ home states of Georgia and Minnesota accounted for nearly half of their pathetic Electoral College showing of 49 votes. Democrats were mourning in America as Ronald Reagan rode a landslide into the White House.
