Poll in Bellwether County Shows Johnson in Trouble
A Bay area poll in Palo Alto County, a national bellwether, suggests Johnson could lose re election if the presidential vote were held now. Voters fault Vietnam policy, federal spending, and farm price issues. Kennedy leads among Democrats and independents, with Romney favored by several Republicans. Some Johnson supporters switch or split, while others back Kennedy or fear continued aid to Vietnam.

Sex Trends Show Attitudes Shift More Than Behavior
A wide range of researchers report that Americans talk more about sex and educate about it, yet behavioral patterns remain largely consistent with past decades. Studies by Kinsey and others show premarital sex among college women around 20 percent, with varying virginity rates across cohorts. Experts note evolving sex ethics toward permissiveness with affection, while cautioning that crisis narratives may overstate decline in virtue.
