Kennedy May Have To Hit Campaign Trail
President Kennedy warned he may need a strong campaign effort to win in November as he blamed a Democratic deficit in the House on long‑standing Conservative Democrats aligned with Republicans. He cited 1938 as a turning point and noted a 263‑174 party split, needing at least six more administration votes. Kennedy urged campaign messaging to sway Democratic candidates while defending defense spending amid GOP criticism. He also commented on Ted Kennedy’s Massachusetts primary bid and House Speaker McCormack’s nephew.
