Buckley backs test competition with private mail carriers
The senator supports allowing limited private entry into mail delivery, arguing the Postal Service faces rising costs and declining parcel post volume. Florida utilities already test hand delivery to 214,000 homes, promising savings and faster service, while critics cite a 40 percent drop in parcel post since 1963.

Carter’s Leftward Tilt Risks 1976 Nomination Bid
Analyst Jeffrey Hart argues Carter’s plan to court the Democratic left risks alienating moderates and could hinder a first-ballot victory. Udall’s weakness shifts the race toward a Carter Jackson showdown post April primaries, with liberal support likely following Carter rather than vice versa. On the GOP side Reagan’s rightward stance helps Ford appear moderating, complicating Carter’s strategy. Carter may seek a liberal vice president to appease the left, a risky convention move.
