O Brien forecasts Democratic wave in 1964 races
O'Brien, chief organizer of Kennedy's 1960 campaign, says in many areas he is stronger than in 1964 and that most Americans oppose a walkout from Vietnam. He tracks two dozen appearances across districts of candidate races and notes uncertainty about the midterm outcome but is less worried than some Democrats about a potential wave if younger Democrats win in 1964.
