Quayle hunting republican votes
The Associated Press
CHARLES CITY, Va. — Sen.
Dan Quayle bristled yesterday
over suggestions he is being used
sparingly by the Bush presidential
campaign, and a Bush spokesman
called such speculation a "phony-
baloney argument."
even before Quayle, the Republican vice president nominee, went on a tour of the historic Berkeley Plantation here, the senator was hit with questions about why he was spending the day visiting Virginia, a so-called "sate state" for the GOP ticket, with Election Day rapidly approaching.
As he boarded the "Hosier Pride" campaign plane near Washington for the 45-minute flight to Richmond, Quayle was asked whether the Bush campaign was limiting his appearances to areas already considered in the GOP column.
GOF column.
"Yeah, we're in safe states for the Republicans, like West Virginia and Maryland, and states like that," he cracked sarcastically. "They're very traditional Republican (territory) and that's why we went there." Maryland and West Virginia traditionally have been strongly Democratic.
strongly asked. Quayle was asked the same question as he and his wife, Marilyn, emerged from a Baptist church in suburban Richmond where they attended services.
Quayle called his outing "a great schedule" and said "we'll get the message out because national television will put on great smiling faces."
He spent over an hour at the
plantation site, greeting visitors and giving a short speech. Quayle was returning to Washington later in the day.
The Indiana junior senator had complained about the Bush campaign scheduling last week, although his objection was to sudden changes in schedules, rather than to the sites selected for him.
Officials of the Bush and Quayle campaigns have sought to minimize speculation in recent days that the senator has been sent to smaller, strong-GOP bastions, in an attempt to keep Quayle out of the limelight and minimize any Election Day losses stemming from polls showing public doubts about his fitness for the high office.
Yesterday, Bush campaign spokesman Mark Goodin accompanied Quayle on the trip to Virginia. Goodin said he came along because he has relatives in Richmond, but the spokesman also took pains to deny to reporters that the Bush campaign was trying to keep Quayle hidden as Election Day draws near.
"He came to Virginia because Sen. (John) Warner asked him to." Goodaid said.
The Bush spokesman said that Quayle's value to the ticket has been as "an anchor" to the GOP's strong base in the South, border states and the Indiana senator's native Midwest.
Goodin also said that in recent days, Quayle has been assigned principally the responsibility of keeping GOP faithful from becoming complacent.
CHICAGO — Democratic vice presidential candidate Lloyd Bentsen said yesterday that the presidential campaign, would not leave the next president with a mandate, no matter who won.
The Associated Press
No mandate for president, Bentsen says
"That means more work and a lot more swabbing that has to be done, and I think Mike Dukakis can do that," he said.
of his party's standard bearer.
of his party's leaders on both NBC-TV "Meet the Bentonism incident on CBS-TV" "Face the Nation." NBC said Republican Dan Quayle had also been invited but turned down the invitation, and journalists on the show said Quayle had appeared on no national television interview shows during the campaign.
On CBS, Bentsen predicted that congressional Democrats would not gang up on Bush if Bush was elected.
"Not gang up, no, but I don't think he gets any brownie points (from) the kind of campaign he's run. It's been an extremely negative one." the Texas senator said.
Benten reiterated his indignation at the Republican's negative advertisements.
"They've had an effect, and they've hurt and they demean the process," he told NBC.
Bush's wife and one of his sons defended the vice president on CBS.
"You can persuade me that George has run a dirt campaign." Barbara Bush said. "He hasn't a runny head."
Jeb Bush said Dukakis was fair game, and he didn't expect his father to face resentment if
"My dad has a great ability to heal wounds." he
said.
Bentsen, asked if Bush would find a stalemate greeting him because of a lack of a mandate on specific issues, said: "Frankly, I don't think either candidate at this point has a serious mandate."
Afterward, he told reporters, "Michael Dukakis will not have as much of a mandate as he deserves because it was difficult to get the issues across with all the clutter of negative advertising. But I also believe the two of us together, with me as vice president . . . that we will be able to get our legislative program through better than George Bush and Dan Quayle would."
Hensen said that if he returned to his post as chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, he would not try to use that forum to wreak vengeance on Bush.
"We have too much at stake in this country to try to seek revenge or something like that," he said.
Campaign Roundup
JACKSON MAY RUN AGAIN: Jesse Jackson, twice defeated for the Democratic presidential nomination, says he "was a heartbeat away from the presidency" this year and suggests he will run for the White House in 1992 if Dukaiks loses. "If Michael Dukaiks loses on Tuesday, the next political season will begin on Wednesday," Jackson said in an interview published in yesterday's Chicago Sun-Times. In the interview, Jackson said he feels Dukaiks can still defeat Bush, but if he doesn't, the Chicagoan is looking at a third run for the White House.
KANSAS PAPERS FOR DUKAKI: In something of a political irony, more daily newspapers with circulation in Republican-dominated Kansas have endorsed Michael Dukaki for president than those who gave their editorial nods to George Bush. A survey of 21 dailies who had published presidential endorsements through yesterday showed 11 for Dukaki, seven backed Bush and three said they could not endorse either candidate. The newspapers with the largest circulations in Kansas, the Wichita Eagle-Beacon and the Kansas City Star and Times, endorsed Dukaki, along with the Hutchinson News, Kansas City Kansan, Salina Journal, Olathe Daily News, Atchison Globe, Ottawa
Herald, Junction City Daily Union, University Daily Kansan and the Kansas State College. On the other side, the Topeka Capital Journal, Lawrence Journal-World, Emporia Gazette, Iola Register, Manhattan Mercury, Parsons Sun and Garden City Telegram endorsed Bush.
VOTING TIME LIMITED: A federal appeals court in San Francisco yesterday allowed county election officials may use a law limiting people to 10 minutes in a voting booth, saving there was no evidence it would be strictly enforced. "The court has rightly recognized that this standard that has been in use for nearly 100 years is an appropriate reminder to the voter," said Chief Deputy Secretary of State Tony Miller. He added that "no elections official is going to reject any bodies from the booths," but many instead could now diplomatically remind voters to complete ballots as quickly as possible.
BUSH WIDEN'S LEAD IN KANSAS: Vice President George Bush has widened his lead over Gov. Michael Dukakis in the final Kansas Poll published yesterday in the Topeka Capital Journal. The poll of 1,000 registered voters who said they intend to vote gave Bush 49 percent to 35 percent for Dukakis, while the remaining 16
percent had not made up their minds — an unusually large block of undecided voters this close to an election. However, when it projected how the vdecidedes would go, Central Research Corp. of Topea, predicted Bush would win Kansas by a 55-44 margin. In the four congressional races, the final poll showed incumbent Democrats Jim Slattery and Dan Glickman and Republicans Jan Meyers and Bob Whittaker with large leads over their challengers.
LOW VOTER TURNOUT EXPECTED: Arkansas Republicans are concerned about voters who would rather hunt deer than go to the polls. In California, officials worry that the lengthy ballot will keep people away, and Oklahomaans think the negative tone of the presidential race has simply turned voters off. With only half of eligible voters expected to turn out for tomorrows' balloting when a new Republican, 33 senators and House members will be elected, Oklahomaians and Democrats alike are keenly aware that getting people to vote will be their No. 1 challenge. But nationwide, public-interest groups predict that only 50 percent or less of the eligible voters will turn out, one of the lowest percentages this century and down from the 1984 figure of 53 percent.
