GRAPEVINE, Page 33THERE THEY GO AGAIN
By JANICE CASTRO/Reported by Sidney Urquhart
Get out the Maalox, here comes WILLIE HORTON II.
Republican pollster Bill McInturff says George Bush's 1988
attack ads will pale beside the campaign commercials both
parties will air next year. The voters are mad as hell, and just
about every candidate seems eager to harness that anger -- or
at least deflect it to the other guy. Besides, TV ads are too
expensive to waste on reasoned debate over the economy and the
homeless. The bipartisan conclusion: keep it short -- and mean.
Dan Quayle has appointed himself the "pit bull" of Bush's
campaign. G.O.P. insiders boast that if Mario Cuomo runs,
they've already located his Willie Horton: Arthur Shawcross, an
upstate New York child killer who went on to murder 10 women
after he was paroled.
