You think Chris Wallace is overly sympathetic to the Quayles' viewpoint?
He interviewed them a couple months ago on ABC, and asked some tougher
questions.  I certainly don't think Dan is sick of the media.

No, it -is- correct.  Bush abandoned everything Reagan had done, and that's
why he failed.

When Bush ended 'Reaganomics', the economy went south.  No surprise.

Trickle down (voodoo) economics did NOT work. Tax breaks were supposed
to create private sector funds that would be used for investment. Those
funds never materialized, resulting in lower profits and massive layoffs.
Tax breaks were used by the wealthy for personal gain, not for investment.
The middle class ended up about where it started, in terms of average
family income. The problem is, there are *many* more families now that
need two incomes to maintain their standard of living. The Republicans
talk about "family values"; first they create an economy that forces
women into the workforce, than they condemn them for having careers.

For once I agree with you. I don't think Perot will have the stomach
for an entire campaign. The Perot phenomenon will have lost it's charm.

Neither Kemp nor Perot will have a chance anyway, if Clinton creates
forward movement in the economy. Clinton's a smart guy and a crafty
politician; I'm betting he does at least OK, maybe a lot better.

Eh?  Did I miss something?

Clinton had something like 45% of the popular vote, Perot 19%, and Bush 
most of the remaining 36%.  How do you figure 36 to be a larger number
than 47?

Or is this merely the cry of denial from a Bushaholic?

Well, heads are rolling at State.  Justice is in a heap of problems anyway,
dating back to Meese.  If nothing else, the Clinton administration will be

undoubtedly happen.

It's the STYLE that matters.  Ed Meese was just as stupid as Quayle,
but UNFUNNY.  It wasn't just that DQ mispelled (de rigueur) potatl (Aztec),
it was rather that he so beautifully cajoled and coaxed the kid into

Sen. Hatch, for example, would have just turned it into some sort of

I don't know what the situation is in Texas, but in California, the
GOP machinery is top to bottom Christian activists, so much so that
Governor Pete Wilson asked delegates to the last party convention to
STAY HOME so a quorum couldn't take place to adopt a right-wing party
platform... his attempt failed. 

The stealth program for infiltrating the Religious Right into the GOP has
been completed, it's their party now. I predict that moderates will split
to form their own party.

To my knowledge, his parents were born there, but he was born in
New York.

I think the success in winning the White House back in 1996 will be
in picking a running mate who is either a minority or a woman, not as
a token gesture or a political ploy but a serious acceptance by an
American political party that there is a change in the face of America
which must be addressed.

Colin Powell would be one of the choices, I am sure there is a very long
list.  Dan Quayle will not be on that list in 1996 for President or
Vice-President, I think he will do well in the private conservative
sector and not be interested in holding political office.

We watched Dan's concession speech to Clinton on tape yesterday, and while
it didn't have any classic Quayleisms in it, it did include the following
precious sequence. Bear in mind this was delivered to a small room of about
100 diehard Quayle supporters.

Quayle is talking about something, and the crowd has "spontaneously"
started chanting "Ninety-Six, Ninety-Six".

Our hero holds his hands in front of him in that universal gesture of
modesty ("aw shucks") to quiet the chant down so he can go on.

The problem is, he keeps his hands in that gesture of "oh, no, you really
shouldn't" for a good 5 or 10 seconds after the "96" chant has died down.

Anybody still think he's not running for Pres already?

playing golf at country clubs, here we have Clinton playing golf at

  But 20th century Americans don't.  Here's my take on the controversy
  over *solanum tuberosum*:

    1.  We, as a society, have shared expectations about how seven and
        eight year olds should spell "potato."  These expectations
        also apply to those with college and post graduate degrees.

    2.  Dan Quayle is of an age where he graduated from high school at
        the time when SAT scores had reached their peak (it's been all 
        downhill ever since), and we can presume that he had a good
        education.

   He could have garnered enormous prestige for himself, and for the cause
   of school choice and teacher competency testing, by simply saying, "This
   is misspelled," handing the card to the teacher, and going on to the
   next card.  But he didn't, and we have the QuayleQuote (tm) to prove it.

   What was *really* distressing, however, was the sight of Dan Quayle
   insisting that something was correct that even a child should know was
   wrong.  No one, in a million years, could have come up with a better 
   indictment of the economic and social policies of the last 12 years.
