Scranton describing Sen. Robert A. Taft’s conservatism as compared to Goldwater’s said Taft was “a conservative in the truest sense of the word. He sought to conserve all the human values that have been carried down to us on a long stream of American history. He saw history as the foundation on which a better future might be built, not a Technicolor fantasy behind which the problems of the present might be concealed.
