I'm assuming he was referring to a light source either in

Not a bad idea if people are going to get upset everytime they see GHWB's name
in JDQ's newsgroup.  My thinking was that there's enough overlap that the two
groups might prove redundant.  For example the list of quotes by Bush concerningthe economy was enhanced greatly by the Quayle quote at the end.  If people
insist on seeing absolutly nothing but Quaylisms in alt.fan.dan-quayle, thus
causing the creation of alt.fan.george.bush, I think you'll just see a hell of
a lot of cross-posting between the two groups.    

BTW, I hear Murphy Brown's going to strike back at Quayle.  Anybody know any
details (where,when,what)?  Can't wait for that.

I don't really know what's involved either.  My impression is that you have to

In defense of Dan, I too saw him on Larry King Live. I thought that he was
in the best form I have ever seen. He was articulate, unhesitating, and
definitely well studied to answer Larry's and the caller's questions. I doubt
that he would drop himself from the ticket, regardless of the pressuring that
he receives from the polls or Bush's staff. To tell you the truth, I bet they
don't want him to drop from the ticket. He has grown up these last four years,
and the Bush admin. knows it. Granted, he has made some mistakes, but if you
show me a politician with a perfect record, I'll show you someone who is not
a politician.

The audience, I believe, tends to be sympathetic to Quayle's views.
His "cultural elite"/Murphy Brown speech came, I think, when he
addressed a conservative organization in NY.  There was applause, I
believe.

The tape of the "potatoe" fiasco showed all the grown-ups clapping,
along with a lot of the kids.  But then, those were probably his
aides, and the kids were overawed by having the VICE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES right there with them.

any supporter or fan of the VP could try:

Larry King:  Next call from Amherst, Massachusetts....  Hello!

Ha. Face it, Perot isn't a great capitalist only because he knows how
to make a lot of money. He's a great capitalist because he knows when
to cut his losses. Look at his history; you'll see there are several
examples of times that he's cut and run instead of risking failure.
He says he put $10 million into the campaign and he saw it was going
nowhere, so he bailed before spending the $100 million he said he'd
spend. Did he care a whit for the promises he'd made to his supporters
that led them to put so much time and energy into this for him? Nope.

Perot's vote was never going to put the election into the house. He would
have been lucky to take a single state in the fall. Without a party
apparatus behind him, and as he was forced to define his stands on the
issues more clearly that became evident to him. This guy never had the
temperament to be president. When he started waking up to the realities
of what he got into so lightly he, as you say, wimped out.

The "Murphy Brown" speech was made here in San Francisco,
of all places, at the Commonwealth Club, not by design a
conservative organization, but one that has a largely white,
middle-aged, middle-class, suburban, professional membership
(despite its best efforts to recruit fresher blood) -- the
kind of people who are tickled to death at being in the same
room as The Vice President Of The United States, whoever he
may be, and whatever nonsense he may be spouting...
