Nixon in can't-win spot in Vietnam says UPI
Merriman Smith of UPI says Nixon cannot win the Vietnam war in conventional terms and may pursue a modified withdrawal with continued American casualties. A peace goal may deliver an uneasy peace but hurt him politically, with no Soviet help to force Hanoi to a cease-fire. The strategy risks pleasing neither doves nor hawks and keeps some US presence in South Vietnam.
