...G.O.P. National Committee Chairman William Miller, a New York Congressman who could also give the ticket a Northeastern tinge, a Catholic, an orator with a gift for tough-talking gab, a clean-cut looking 50-year-old with a handsome wife and four attractive chil dren who would be an asset in anybody's campaign. But he is a relatively unknown politician who is not even standing for re-election this year from his upstate New York congressional district...
