Well, the Running Rebels are ready. You know, when we got to Washington, this country was in the fast lane headed toward economic oblivion. The Dukes of Hazzard are funny when they do it. And there wasn't anything funny about what was going on in Washington. When you go into the voting booth on Tuesday, November the 2d, think about what's being offered.
Runaway spending is finally under control.
You only have to listen to the opposition to know that no matter how they try to disguise it, what they're talking about is reopening the floodgates. And more spending means more taxes. Taxation has been called the art of plucking the feathers without killing the bird, but before we got there the folks in Washington didn't seem to know when to stop plucking. And when you go into the voting booth, remember that those who oppose our program did everything in their power to stop us from cutting your taxes, and they still want to take those tax cuts away from you. When we got to Washington, it was public enemy number one, running at double digits for 2 years back to back, hitting 18 percent in January of 1980.
