...Vice President at 39. Ten years later, defeated for the Presidency and the governorship of California, he certified himself politically kaput. Most of the press agreed, including TIME. In 1966, sensing the vacuum in the party, Nixon campaigned tirelessly for G.O.P. candidates in 35 states and claimed a major share in that year's victory. Nixon is only 55, but he has been a national figure for nearly a generation. He has made survival an avocation...

He constantly re-queried his field men when he thought they did not question pungently enough. He got off his share of quips. He correctly forecast, for example, that the nominating speech for Senator Hiram Fong "will tell us more than we want to know about Hawaii." And, in 35 hours on the anchor watch, Cronkite committed only one embarrassing blooper by confusing Crooner Tony Martin with Tony Bennett...
