...whose delegation might well be the team that pushes Kennedy over the top, hinted last week that he might drop his favorite-son role at the end of the first ballot, or even sooner, and swing the majority of his 81 votes to Kennedy. Minnesota's Governor Orville Freeman, keeper of Hubert Humphrey's strength, admitted that his squad was rooting for Kennedy. Iowa Governor Herschel Loveless has already made up his mind to forgo a nomination as favorite son and to announce for Kennedy, and Kansas' Governor George Docking was ready to throw his delegation behind...
Most of the diplomatic corps, including U.S. Ambassador H. Freeman Matthews, boycotted the airport reception; only 500 people turned up to watch Khrushchev bounce down the ramp all smiles. The scattered crowds on the streets to town barely outnumbered the 8,000 cops and nearly 1,000 plainclothesmen assigned to protect Khrushchev from Vienna's big refugee population.

Hitler took him seriously as a Fascist sympathizer, but few others took him seriously on anything.
