You are absolutely right. I looked up the Arkansas governor list and he was a republican like Nelson was. I thought he was like Jay, a democrat. I guess I always associated Winthrop with the democrats because at the time I was a member of the young democrats and participated in the election campaign of Eugene McCarthy in 1968. I only remember hearing Ted Kennedy speak at some rally and thought he was the most boring person I ever met. I attended a picnic once where Governor Rockefeller was there and I guess I just thought of him as a democrat. Don't remember his speech lol. Don't remember much of what he did in the state because the state was mostly controlled by the democrats or at least I thought so at the time.
