Who should Democrats vote for? Kennedy? He won't run. Humphrey? He's not running either. Connolly? Is he still a Democrat? Wallace? For president? Could Church win? Carter? Udall? Schaaf? Shriver? Bayh? Harris? Benson? A confusing list. But every day, more Democrats, independents, and some Republicans are listening to this inexhaustible senator. And his brains and straight answers might be just what the White House needs. Elect Senator Scoop Jackson while there's still time to save the 70s.
