RW>>TW> Rembember the Polls said Dewey would WIN against Truman.

RW>> That wasn't a poll, that was one newspaper practicing wishful thinking.

 RN> I remember that!  I think it was the Chicago Daily Tribune.

 It is the Chicago Tribune. Chicago once had 4 major newspapers.
 The Tribune was one. The Daily News was another.

 The other two were the Chicago American, and the Sun Times. The
 American went under long ago, the News followed eventually.

 RN>  Truman had a lot of fun with that as well as the
 RN>  commentator H.V. Kaltenborn.
