. Terry

Noah talks to former Senator George McGovern about his new book "Terry". The book is about his daughter's struggle with alcoholism. "Terry" died about a year-and-a-half-ago at the age of 45. McGovern says he regrets the "tough love" approach he and his wife took with their daughter the last few months of her life. And, he says, he didn't realize until it was too late that his daughter really had no control over her disease.
