As things are turning out, the two men who may have the greatest impact on the outcome of the 1985 governors’ race aren’t candidates seeking the office.
To be sure, Republican Wyatt B. Durrette and Democrat Gerald L. Baliles are in there pitching. They are doing all the things a candidate for governor should be doing. They are covering the state, they are meeting all the right people and, within the context of their candidacies, they generally are building their cases according to blueprints which have been brainstormed, computerized and certified by their consultants.
But something is missing. With the campaign in its last couple of weeks, neither candidate is doing or saying the things which move people to discuss what they have to offer or become excited about their candidacies.
Now, both men know, or should know, that in order to energize —one might even say legitimize —their bids for the governorship, they must create within the electorate a degree of interest in themselves and in what their campaigns are all about.
