Heller said that McGovern was effective in face to face campaigning but McGovern is not having nationwide success.

JAMES TITUS, professor of political science, said that McGovern would have trouble because he was trying to form a new Democratic coalition of blacks, Chicanos and the elderly.
"McGovern will have a tough time trying to put these groups together because of the unrest of voter participation," Titus said.
