Chapter Fourteen
"I am afraid that, while we've worked hard, it's time to end our campaign."
-Bob Dole (1980)
"After New Hampshire, South Carolina became too important. Connally understood that if he were to lose in the first Southern primary, then he might as well have conceded to Buckley."
-Andrew Marr (2009)
"So the Connally people decided to campaign regionally: in places like Charleston or Cornelius, he'd campaign with Strom Thurmond-but in places like Columbia or North Charleston, he'd campaign on his civil rights record as Governor. They simply needed a victory-and any victory was a strong victory by that point."
