  QUAYLE CONCEDES TO HOMETOWN CROWD
 
HUNTINGTON, Ind. -----  Vice President Dan Quayle's concession
speech Tuesday night in Huntington, Ind.:
   My friends, I have just finished speaking with Governor
Clinton and I congratulated him.  This is -- tonight is Bill
Clinton's night.  And I congratulated Bill Clinton and we
must all pull together now.  He is going to be the president
of the United States for the next four years.  He deserves our
congratulations.
   He ran a good campaign.  He ran a tough campaign.  If he runs
the country as well as he ran his campaign, we will be all right.
   My friends -- my friends, these last four years -- these
last four years, I've had the privilege to serve with one of the
most outstanding individuals I've ever met: George Bush.
   He is -- he is one of the most honest, decent, caring
individuals that I have ever met.  Marilyn and I count
President and Barbara Bush as special friends, and the two of
them have done a lot for America.
   My friends, tonight we have everything to be proud of even
though it's not a victory, because history will record the
great accomplishments of this administration.
   We did win the Cold War.  America is stronger and safer
than ever before, and this president -- this president
rallied the war in the first post-Cold War crisis to make
sure that aggression would not stand.
   My friends, Marilyn and I -- we have had 16 great years;
first as congressman, then as senator, and the last four as
vice president of the United States.  And I have loved every
single minute of it.
   The two of us -- we got into politics because we thought we
could make a difference.  And we have made a difference, and we
will continue to make a difference.
  I have always stood up for what I believe in.  And I will
continue to stand up and to speak up for what I believe.
  But, tonight -- tonight, my friends, is a night for healing.
It's the time -- now is not the time for political debate;
that will come another day.
   So, again, I congratulate Governor Clinton and his running
mate, Senator Gore.  They ran a very good campaign.
   They won.  They deserve our support.  They deserve our
respect, and we will work with them to make America stronger.
   We will continue to work to make this country better.
Let's stick together.  We've done it before' we'll do it again.
Thank you very much.  God bless you, and thanks for your
support and prayers."
