ABC's Reasoner had lengthy interview with McG. The Senator
said the disparity between Calif. results and polls shows polls to be
a "not very reliable" index. McG admitted "some misunderstanding'
between him and the business community on his tax proposals, and
admitted that there would be some tax increases among hi-income
groups and corporations, but he asserted it is only fair. On
possible running mates, McG felt that the "ideological differences"
between him and Wallace were "too great, 11 but he WO uld not rule
out as possibles Carter, Askew, or Sanford.
"Comfortable" is about all that can be said of McG's Calif. win,
said Sevareid. The 5% is about what RFK had (Chancellor note also)
and with less than 1/2 of the votes, McG gets all the delegates.
HHH ran true to his "unique" form -- poor organization, not much
money, and sheer animal energy. He came up fast at end but not
quite enough.
much like the "near miss¹¹ with RN in 168. The
pollsters fell on their questionnaires "wildly overestimating"-
and should take a vacation, said Eric. Especially, those with pol
clients and with high passions. Humor has been absent, but
"unintended" humor will now begin. Wallace -- an anathema to
both McG and HHH might now be suitable to HHH as a running mate;
McG will swing thru South and also journey to see Wallace; none
will be more "courted and flattered" than Wallace at the Convention,
as the worst thing of all would be for an "offended" Wallace to come
out in the end for RN.
Sevareid said McG will have to move toward center, but the
trouble with center lane of 172 pol highway is both fenders can be
torn off. McG is "genuine symbol¹ of "newness and change" but
opposite groups see him representing change their way McG
can finess this thru convention, said Eric, but he'll find it hard
in the campaign and harder for governing purposes if elected.
Analyst Scammon and Pollster Quayle, on Today, said it will
be more and more difficult to stop McG, but doesn't mean it can't
happen. Scammon said complex NY ballot lends itself to-McG
voters and the Senator has "good momentum" going into State.
As far as Nov., Scammon sees the election "up for grabs" no matter
who Dems run.
