Nebraska was also the best vindication yet of his longer-range design: to create such an impact in the primaries that Humphrey delegates from the non-primary states will be shaken loose. The magic number in Chicago will be 1,312 votes, and most estimates of committed and potential delegate strength put Humphrey well ahead at present. But every Kennedy victory puts that...

All in all, the Islander offers only one frill; though one big engine would theoretically offer reliability enough...
