Ford pressured to reject Connally as running mate
Ford faces mounting pressure from staff and Republicans in Congress to drop John Connally as his vice presidential candidate. Rep Tom Railsback seeks a Ford briefing on evidence from the Nixon impeachment saga while Rep William Armstrong argues Connally would doom November results. Dallas financier Peter O'Donnell promotes Connally for the ticket and campaign role, as White House aides cite polling that favors Ford without Connally but fears a Connally pick.
