...based Florida Concerned Democrats (FCD) may be able to take a few party posts in 1970, but only because party posts mean little in this state. The FCD is predominately Jewish now in this largely redneck state. Even if the FCD joins a real coalition of black-browns, and white liberals, they would stand only a slim chance of controlling party candidates in the conservative party...
There are two legal Democratic parties in the state--no one knows what will happen, though the traditional party of Gov. Lester Maddox might reconstitute itself after November as a grass roots Wallacite party. A biracial coalition of white urban liberals like Charles Longstreet Weltner from progressive Altanta and black community leader state Rep. Julian Bond comprise the new party.

With a predicted GOP landslide repudiating the machine's political judgment ("machines must not only make the choice, but the right one," as one ward boss said) coupled with Daley's long-announced retirement in '71, a New Politics coalition of urban blacks (like Chicago Alderman Raney), white suburban liberals (like North Shore party leader Williams), and down-state forces (like Richard Mudge of Edwardsville) is a serious possibility.

...Watts ain't funny." Another Negro widow, played by Gail Fisher, will be a regular on the old private-eye series Mannix (CBS). A pair of new ABC adventure programs feature balanced tickets as well. The Mod Squad boasts three troublemaking dropouts who turn fuzz: one hip white chick (Peggy Lipton), one rebellious rich white boy (Michael Cole), and one ghetto black (Clarence Williams III). And The Outcasts are an odd couple of bounty hunters in the post-Civil War West. Don Murray plays a former slaveholder; Otis Young is a former slave. For viewers with more conventional tastes...
