By JULIE BOSMAN</p>
<p>AUSTIN, Tex. — Frank Herrera, a prominent lawyer in Texas, was sitting at home two Saturdays ago when he received a telephone call.</p>
<p>The voice at the end of the line was that of an old friend from Senator George McGovern’s 1972 presidential campaign, who had since become the godfather, at least to some, of the Democratic Party.</p>
<p>“ ‘We’ve been with you all these years,’ ” Bill Clinton said, according to Mr. Herrera. “ ‘Now the time has come for you to be with us.’ ”</p>
<p>Mr. Herrera, who had up to that point been undecided in the Democratic race, promptly pledged his support to the Clintons. “The don never asks for a second favor when the first one has been rejected,” he said.</p>
