It's all part of the Single Bullet Theory. Apparently the bullet simply didn't hit any of Connally's vital organs.

Here's a fun fact for the conspiracy nuts: They left the bits of the bullet inside Connally because the surgery needed to remove it was unnecessary. After he died (years later), Connally's wife would not allow the bullet pieces to be removed before his body was buried. So the question of whether the bullet pieces inside Connally match the one that killed JFK is unconfirmed. If the bullet was a different type then the single bullet theory would be untrue. The answer lies in the Texas state cemetery, where you would probably be shot before you could dig up a Governor's grave.
