not until mid-may did the tide finally turning goldwater's favor. the california primary made his nomination all but certain. the primary season highlighted deep divisions in the republican party and in dirksen's senate caucus. it also proved to be a major headache for civil rights proponents. with senators dispersed around the country and republicans preoccupied with presidential politics, it was difficult to maintain an accurate vote count. even more troublesome was the fact that barry goldwater was among those who opposed cloture in all situations. in the wake of his primary win in california, five gop senators defected to support his stand on the gag rule. this left dirksen short of his necessary 25 votes. there was one other contextual item i will mention only in passing. this could be a whole talk in itself. at the same time the senate was locked and contentious argument over the bobby baker affair, a high-profile investigation of a former democratic party secretary charged with fraud and bribery, civil rights proponents worried this partisan

it meant that the republican party, unlike, say, the goldwater republican party of 1964, was no longer fighting against the new deal; that it was possible to think of reforming many of the institutions bequeathed to us by the new deal, but that the issue of the new deal was behind us. and acceptance of the new deal in principle, if not in all of its details, was one of the basic differences between neo-conservatives and traditional republican conservatives, who were still fighting against the new deal. but once ronald reagan began praising franklin d. roosevelt as a kind of predecessor, and as i say, newt gingrich does exactly the same thing now--the republican party has changed. not everyone in the republican party has changed, but it is an important fact that these two leaders of--who helped define the modern republican party spoke so well of franklin d. roosevelt. c-span: any idea of why you wouldn't write much about john f. kennedy or jimmy carter? >> guest: well, jimmy carter didn't exist for me. it's as simple as that. john f. kennedy i admired; as i say, i voted for him. i thoug
