There are many reasons for Wallace's unique appeal, but his antipathy to "them"?anybody who is not "us"?is the chief one. While Wallace stoutly denies that he is a racist, "they" usually means the blacks. "They" also embraces Supreme Court Justices and bureaucrats in Washington, professors in colleges, and journalists almost anywhere.

Democrats denounce Rafferty as a "racist" for calling the state's fair-housing law a "forced housing" act. With obvious relish, particularly in view of Rafferty's ringing condemnation of draft-card burners as "creeps, cowards, unwashed, long-haired Communists," the Democratic-leaning Long Beach Independent has accused the G.O.P candidate of being something less than avid to serve in the Armed Forces during World War II.
