1 Exit Stage Left: Senator James M. Jeffords and The
EXIT STAGE LEFT: SENATOR JAMES M. JEFFORDS AND THE RHETORIC OF CONGRESSIONAL PARTY SWITCHERS by JUSTIN LEE KILLIAN (Under the Direction of John M. Murphy, PhD) ABSTRACT This project looks at the discourse surrounding Senator James M. Jeffords’ decision to leave the Republican Party. Although Jeffords was not an extremely powerful member of the US Senate, his interference with President George W. Bush’s legislative agenda was a landmark move in American politics. The thesis proceeds in three parts. Chapter One introduces the subject matter, provides a literature review from both political science and communication studies, and offers the critical perspective for the entire project. Chapter Two focuses on elements of American paideia and offers a critical analysis of Jeffords’ “Declaration of Independence,” and “First Anniversary,” speeches. Chapter Three shows how Jeffords engages in agonistic rhetorical practices through a critical look at his “Second Anniversary Speech.” Finally, Chapter Four provides some concluding thoughts on Jeffords, party switching rhetoric, and offers potential avenues of research for rhetorical scholars.

Francis Peisch Mark Greenberg Interviewer
Francis Peisch Mark Greenberg Interviewer FP Well I can speak about that, excuse me, time in my own life as follows: I remember the room where I was standing when the phone call came. The building is gone and I remember a voice said to me, "This is Alex Novicoff, I'd like to come down and see you." I knew that he was in some sort of difficulty at the University dealing with the Fifth Amendment. Of course all lawyers at that time were acutely aware of Joe McCarthy from Wisconsin. My father is from Wisconsin. I had the utmost contempt for McCarthy from the beginning. Not that I had the voice of perfect foresight. Well in those days in Burlington, the Daily News was being published and that was just down College Street, down where Bennington Potters North was located and I knew so little of the Novicoff situation that I went down and looked at the back issues just to find out what the situation was. I can't say too much about what it was like in Burlington. I can only say from my own perception was in 1951 I was 33 years old. I had been in Burlington for three years. I had three children. I think one, no none on the way. I wound up with eight children. I don't belong to the American Civil Liberties Union. I never have. I'm a republican. I consider myself a conservative. I had never had any touch of any kind with this sort of thing.
