Headline:
Rasmussen Poll (August, 1979) shows former TX Governor John Connally leading George H.W. Bush 29 to 18. Phil Crane trails with 13.
Non candidate Ronald Reagan not polled. Reason: He is not running and it is too late for him to enter.
(Post script: Reagan entered THREE MONTHS later, on November 13, 1979, won the nomination in a rout, carried 44 states, defeating the first elected incumbent President since Herbert Hoover 50 years earlier.)
And Connally? Spent $11 million to get ONE delegate. Dropped out after Yankee Reagan clobbered him 55-30 in the South Carolina primary (although John Connally was a better candidate than Rick Perry).
