...then Goldwater went even farther. He revived an old and ugly phrase -"soft on Communism." Said he in Cincinnati: "I charge that this Administration is soft on Communism." He underlined the phrase in his text, repeated it in his barnstorming in Illinois and Indiana. "The cause of peace," he said, "will not be served by men who are soft on Communism...
...about par: he has been averaging 15 completions and two TD passes a game ever since he broke into the N.F.L. in 1956. Of course, he almost didn't break in at all. The son of a Pittsburgh coal dealer, he was turned down at Notre Dame and Indiana ("I only weighed 145 then," he explains), finally settled for the University of Louisville.

Some philosophy! Some freedom!" Reacting to G.O.P. charges that his longtime association with the Americans for Democratic...
...best a Goldwater director can say of the Kansas area is that "we've seen a switch from general carping about everything to constructive bitching." An all-day telephone drive in South Dakota got out fewer than 100 people to meet Bill Miller at the Mitchell airport. Indiana's Citizens for Goldwater has chapters in only about half of the state's counties. John Kennedy had a stronger Citizens group in conservative Nebraska than Goldwater has today. Illinois Republicans are working hard for Gubernatorial Candidate Charles Percy, but liaison with Goldwater forces is weak. Says Michigan...
