He will i jt come up for reelection until ir-58 but. if he were running this year, could ri win again where it counts mo.-r,, among the people who already have given him two Senate terms? Seeking the answers I talke i with political figures, editors and people on both .sides of the McCarthy fence. I found no one, even among the senator's, bitterr est opponents, who was ready to bet that he couldn't wiu reelection this year. At a recent meeting, at whicn organizational plans were made tor me "Joe Must Go' movement, reporters found that a heavy majority or the 500 people present were Democrats to beiin with. Many people believe thpt if anyone is going to lick McCarthy in his own state, it wiii have to be a Republican, in a primary.
