Using new information obtained from studies of old Soviet files in Moscow and now the famous Vanona Intercepts -- FBI recordings of Soviet embassy communications between 1944-48 -- the record is showing that McCarthy was essentially right. He had many weaknesses, but almost every case he charged has now been proven correct. Whether it was stealing atomic secrets or influencing U.S. foreign policy, communist victories in the 1940s were fed by an incredibly vast spy and influence network.
You can google (Communism - McCarthy Was Right) to form your own opinion, I'd really like to hear it. From this article I learned he was poisoned to death under "suspicious circumstances" while in the hospital.
