Chapter Seventeen
"A landslide has taken place in South Carolina..."

-Walter Cronkite (1980)

John Connally: 35.6%

James Buckley: 26.3%

John Anderson: 20.2%

Howard Baker: 17.9%

"Connally's approval fell nationally after the debate, but the Republicans in South Carolina were more worried about their own issues. So Connally still had his win-but Buckley was not destroyed."

-
Rahm Emanuel (2009)
