Sen. George Smathers of Florida said in Washington that a Democratic vice presidential nomination remains within the ballpark but unlikely. He dismissed Texas Gov. John Connally as a possible No. 2 choice, noting Connally’s ties to Johnson and that Humphrey would avoid being seen as Johnson’s stooge. Smathers added it could be possible if peace were achieved in Vietnam.
