Dark horse Bricker seen as GOP presidential possibility
The Decatur Daily reports Ohio Governor John William Bricker as a leading potential Republican candidate. He cleaned up a spoils-tainted administration, cut payrolls, moved Ohio to pay-as-you-go finances, and expanded old-age pensions while maintaining a folksy small town image. His assets include a solid governor's record and organizational skill. liabilities center on limited national recognition and potential Taft competition for Ohio's delegation.
