Kent: How come that he did? Fry: Yes, as you look back on it. Kent: Well, of course, Stevenson was so much more of a man than Kefauver was. And I think it finally began to get to the people that Kefauver was something of a phony. I mean, Kefauver would make one kind of a speech down in Memphis, Tennessee, and he d make a very different kind of a speech out here in East Oakland. Stevenson had made this vast impression on a very large number of Democrats in the 52 campaign. He had a terrific carr...yover of loyalty and affection and respect and admiration. Kefauver had nothing like it. Now for instance, I don t know how it went in some counties, but in the counties that I was familiar with say, Marin and Alameda and, to a considerable extent, San Francisco and then upcountry in Glenn and Colusa and the rest of the small ones Stevenson was just so far ahead that there was nothing to it. And all the [county] leaders were for Stevenson. Fry: Well, these people on the saturation campaigns that came out to be a part of that were Governor George Leader of Pennsulvania and Governor Robert Meyner of New Jersey and Senator Hubert Humphrey and Senator Albert Gore.
