There's a story Art used to tell about how Ed Muskie visited the Tt. Laud. Seed, and afterwords the media grilled him about either his or his wife's treatment for depression - he cried, it made the national headlines, and he later withdrew from the race. I've seen the newspaper article.

Art always used that story as an illustration of how the media can make a story out of a trivial event.

I bet a quick online search would turn this up.

SHH:
That was the same incident that my husband described. I guess it was Muskie that visited that day when he stood up.

cleveland:
From wikkipedia:

"Many also blame Muskie's loss on his emotional defense of his wife, Jane Muskie, after the Manchester Union-Leader, a conservative newspaper criticized Mrs. Muskie. Muskie seemingly wept as he spoke outside the newspaper's offices, yet he would later claim that what seemed to be tears were actually melted snowflakes. Had this not been a controversy, many question whether Muskie would have won the nomination and gone on to defeat President Nixon."

So this indicates it didn't happen outside of the Seed, as Art said. Or perhaps I misunderstood the story.

GregFL:
damn, who knows. He was however, at the seed at that time.  It is reported in the newspaper.
