I guess it was H.W, because he was with Reagan. At least, that’s what we thought. The major thing I remember about him was his “Read My Lips - No New Taxes” pledge.

I think that this was the true realization for me that “Republican” could also mean RINO.

Nah, he finished near the back of the field in Iowan (corn guys wanted Dole, conservatives backed Robertson). I was in school and supported Jack Kemp. Kemp did not know how to run/fund-raise a national campaign, and stayed in 5%-land. George the Elder veered right ... and STAYED right for the general election, until he got full of himself for '92, and took the bump from the Iraq invasion as a general approval, and completely misread the Perot candidacy. That campaign will be a study in failure for eons to come.

Let us not forget that it was GHW Bush that coined the phrase "Voodoo Economics" when he was running against Reagan in 1980 to describe what became the Reagan economic revolution.
