Millie Bruner, State Democratic Executive Committee member from Grand Prairie, said Mondale showed strength in naming Ferraro. "It took courage to pick a woman." To others, however, Ferraro is viewed as a liberal look-alike of Mondale and provides no philosophical balance to the ticket. U.S.

Rep. Solomon Ortiz of Corpus Christi said he has received substantial negative response from his constituents to the Ferraro selection. "The timing is not right," Ortiz said in an interview. will have to prove herself in As if the Ferraro selection were not enough, Ortiz said the appointment of Lance as the Mondale campaign director may be a serious problem for Texas Democrats. Lance, who resigned as President Carter's budget director amid a controversy over his banking practices, is "excess baggage" for Mondale in Texas, Ortiz believes.

Others in the Texas delegation, however, argue that the selection of Lance and the ouster of Manatt may not seriously damage the Mondale campaign in the state. The former vice president found a campaign "technician" in Lance, said Ann Richards, state treasurer. Despite the reservations some Texans have about the selection of Lance, Richards noted that he is a "known factor" in political fundraising and campaign circles.
