Without Googling, do you know what would-be president (he never made it to the Iowa caucuses) was the subject of a biography actually called, “Quiet Passion”? I just passed the book on my bookcase and giggled at the title. — PolitiTweet.org

@AbPow Nothing quiet about Connally ever. I can hear him bellowing threats to the Japanese in 1980 that unless they drop their tariffs President Connally would let their cars rot on the docks of Yokohama. — PolitiTweet.org
