Was it Goldwater or was it USAF General Curtis "nuke 'em" LeMay? Or both?

Hi,
i found this at the Business Week site...
"Barry Goldwater was outspoken and often outrageous. Republicans howled with indignation when Johnson ran a now-famous TV ad juxtaposing a freckled-faced little girl and the
mushroom cloud of a nuclear bomb -- an ad that more than hinted at Goldwater's itchy trigger finger. But Goldwater would have used nuclear bombs in Vietnam. He said so often in the
aftermath of his disastrous '64 campaign."
