...went Republican by 23,000; in Democratic '48 it slipped to the Democratic side by 1,139, then stayed there by 7,000 in 1950; in Republican 1952, it switched back to the Republican column by 11,610. Early reports from New Haven brought the first deep frowns at Adlai Stevenson's headquarters on the evening of Nov. 4, 1952. In 1954, Republican trend-watchers will be pleased if G.O.P. Representative Al Cretella begins to pile up a good lead over Democratic Candidate James F. Gartland. They will begin to see a bad night nationally for the G.O.P...
Like Reconstruction, Harry Truman is something the Deep South never quite got over. Last week three South Carolina newspapers printed an interview with his old military aide, Harry Vaughan, which said that both Truman and Vaughan endorsed Senatorial Candidate Edgar Brown.

Morris offers many rewarding moments of major excitement and minor truth. But he deliberately invites comparison with Hemingway...
There was brief applause as Trainor sat down; there was less response to a plea to "dig down deep and come up with some--money." He gestured to a girl in a tight sweater who resignedly passed a small basket. The meeting started again as Trainor rasped: "Anybody's got a question, go ahead and ask." A tall student in the back questioned Trainor's facts concerning the formation of the Republican Party. "Aw hell," the speaker blurted.
