...ambitious husband's political career may well be ended, but she could have been weeping for Minnesota Democrats too. The once-proud party of Hubert Humphrey, created in 1944 when he merged Democrats and Farm-Laborites into the Democrat-Farmer-Labor Party, had been humiliated by one of its own, Governor Karl F. Rolvaag.

In fact, the President's reception amazed all except those of us proud to be among his staunchest supporters. Estimates of the crowd ranged from the G.O.P.'s 30,000 to the police's 50,000 and the Democrats' 70,000. At the end of his talk, Johnson was mobbed by well-wishers. It took his car 22 minutes, despite the best...
