...Wallace 17 (Alabama's 10 and Mississippi's 7). For Nixon: Arkansas (6), Florida (14), Kentucky (9), Oklahoma (8), South Carolina (8), Texas (25) and Virginia (12). For Humphrey: Georgia (12), Louisiana (10), North Carolina (13-) and Tennessee (11)-But for a growing Negro vote, a deep-rooted Democratic tradition and the fact that most Wallace votes will be skin off Republican hides, Nixon might have been able to count on a clean sweep in Dixie. Georgia went for Barry Goldwater in 1964, but Wallace-not Nixon -will get a good share of those Republican votes this year...

...that "they're not really so different-just worse off." Otis Garnand, an auto-parts dealer, was moved by his night among the vagrants. "I thought there'd be camaraderie on skid row, like in a neighborhood bar," he said. "But I was wrong. There's deep hostility there, and it touched me -I wish I knew what could be done...
...Blows. It is always possible to attack a historical novel on grounds of inaccuracy and faulty detail. It is particularly difficult in this case, since there is actually very little known about Turner himself or the rebellion. But since the ultimate sources of characterizations and events in fiction lie deep in the creative unconscious, such arguments, even if historically true, border on irrelevancy. The essayists, led by John Henrik Clarke, an editor of the militant Negro magazine Freedomways, repeat the same points endlessly and separately, but this does not necessarily validate them. Nor does a reprinting of the full text...
