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."
