New Estimate of Joe

After watching the Army v. McCarthy hearings for more than a month, the strongly pro-McCarthy Chicago Tribune last week wrote a brand-new estimate of one of its favorite Senators: "In the course of the radio and television show, Mr. McCarthy has managed on more than one occasion to irritate his friends while confounding his enemies. It wasn't easy, but he did it. We have never supposed that he was likely to get a presidential nomination, and now we believe it is more unlikely than ever. Delegates to national conventions do not nominate sluggers like Mr. McCarthy. Citizens down East who have found it difficult to sleep of nights for fear that the junior Senator from Wisconsin would land in the White House need worry no longer."
