...different in their outlook and temperament, who share a common trait. In part because of their professional, almost impersonal skill at merchandising their personalities, they create an aura of reserve about themselves−one that reporters rarely penetrate. Against their cool responses, interrogative reporting of the Mike Wallace-Dan Rather school seems out of season, overheated and hectoring.

Dan Walker in the March primary, but this fall Howlett faces a very tough race against the Republican candidate: former U.S. Attorney James R. Thompson.
