...glowing confidence. His campaign will be simple: "Things are getting better & better. We planned it that way. Let's have four years more of Democratic Recovery." The Party debt has been cleared away and millions of voters living on government bounty will not be allowed to forget who feeds them. And, above all, the Republicans have no one candidate now in sight who can fire the country with personal enthusiasm...

We should not forget that in 1932 he received the biggest minority vote in history. As a probable indication of the way his thoughts are tending, it is not out of order to inspect his flattering mention of Cleveland-the only president to make a come-back after being defeated. Certainly this much rises out of the mist of Republican politics-Hoover recently has become much stronger...
