RE: Read my lips: No New Taxes!
I’m still waiting for someone to mention Ross Perot...
Not so great. I did not want the USA turned into North Mexico so he could get his New World OrderI worked the phones in that election and my ears were burning from Republicans who would not vote for him because he broke his promise.
Thank you dick darman
That plus there was a third party candidate
Absolutely!
1. Read my lips, no new taxes.
2. A new world order.
resulting in...
3. Pat Buchanan’s strong showing in New Hampshire.
No, Buchanan did not win like McCarthy against LBJ in 1968, but the message was the same. To give the GOP the best chance in 1992, Bush could have not pursued the nomination, allowing someone like Dole or Kemp the shot against a non-incumbent Democrat. If that had happened, do you really think Perot would have spent the money and effort of a 3rd party campaign?
I do not.
Perot did what he did because of Bush.
No Bush, no Perot, no Clinton.
My 1 1/2 cents,
“Jack booted Thugs”
Read my lips! Ross Perot
That was bad. But, what really cooked his goose was he called the new tax increase a 'revenue enhancement'.
WOW! GMTA!
Exactly.
It wasn’t “read my lips”.
It was when he answered a question about his reversal with, “read my hips”.
