Would somebody be so good as to sit down and have a little talk with Senator Edmund Muskie, who recently asked: “Why can’t liberals start raising hell about a government so big, so complex, so expensive, and so unresponsive that it’s dragging down every good program we’ve worked for?”

Crossed wires on the oracular front: “Senator Henry Jackson’s surprising win in the Massachusetts primary last night recasts the whole Democratic picture, bringing new credibility to Jackson and making him—for the first time—a prime contender for the Democratic presidential nomination. Jackson will likely take away votes from ex-Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter in Florida next Tuesday, increasing the probability of a win there for Alabama Governor George Wallace.” (Evans & Novak Political Report, March 3.)
