Too Much Boom For Humphrey Backers Fear LBJ Reaction
Backers fear President Johnson may view the rapid surge for Hubert Humphrey as pressure on his choice. Johnson insists he will select the running mate, and Kennedy allies are blamed for prompting delegation tactics. Humphrey says he is not campaigning and relies on Johnson to decide. Supporters include governors Hughes Brown and others, signaling regional backing for Humphrey as McCarthy is also considered.
