Nelson Rockefeller, on the other hand, would probably carry the state, as well as Connecticut, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, while turning the Massachusetts and Rhode Island races into photo finishes and losing Delaware to the Democrats.

Even if he knew about the law, Charles Cotner of Jasper County, Ind., could hardly believe that it covered married couples in the privacy of their bedrooms...
...help one another. He was ambitious, but not for himself. He ended his musing: "I don't know what I'll do if I'm not elected President." As his body lay in St. Patrick's Cathedral, there was agreement on one point. Whoever became President would always have known that Robert Kennedy was around. So would the nation. So would the world...
