James Reston reports from the 1944 Republican convention where Senator Arthur Vandenberg faced the Dewey surge. Vandenberg, relaxed and confident, notes the race would be decided without backroom deals as delegates shift and Michigan votes loom. He reflects on whether he might have pressed a personal bid but fears instability of peace policy.
