This politically sensitive capital would put him down as somewhat more conservative than Mr. Roosevelt but inclined toward the underdog. He’s not so left-of-center, if at all. “It will be my effort,” Mr. Truman announced a few minutes after taking the oath, “to curry on us I believe the President would have done and to that end I have asked the cabinet to stay on with me.” Any vice president succeeding to the White House would say as much and mean it, too.
