Hello.
Mr. Haldeman, sir.
Hello.
Yes, sir.
Wonder if you could get over about 4.30.
Maybe I got auto on at 4, and I can get rid of him by a half hour.
All right.
I'll work that out, yeah.
I mean, not if you're... That's fine.
Yeah.
But you'd be interested in... We found one guy with guts.
Connolly just got a call from him.
He's going to announce his shift to Republican at 11 o'clock today.
I saw in the paper that he probably was, so I figured that's true.
That's good, isn't it?
Well, it's a very good move on his part.
Well...
It'll be very helpful to you.
You bet your life.
All right, Bob.
But it's damn smart for him, too.
Fine, good.
I'll see you at 4.30.
