But many of the politicians who will be stumping the congressional districts are firmly against that policy. They are convinced that Ike is still overwhelmingly popular with the U.S. voter. Said one Democratic pro: "We ought to pretend that 1952 never happened, that there is no such thing as Eisenhower."
