It's interesting because it was after my time but hindsight kind of showed he was right in principal but wasn't a great statesman and couldn't do the political calculations behind the scenes to rally his own party much less unit both sides.
I vaguely know about Ollie North and how the hostage situation before his second election run sabotaged his campaign but that seems to be more a nail in the coffin rather than the only reason for his failure.
