Vice President Gore addressed the AFL-CIO Transportation Trades Department's
convention in Washington. Gore said that this week could mark a turning
point in the campaign because Bush's Social Security advisor Martin Feldstein
had admitted, in Gore's words, that the Bush plan "would put it [Social
Security] into virtual bankruptcy." Gore, who had been lagging behind
Bush in horserace polls for the past several months, recently began to
show some advances. For about nine or ten days he had been pounding
away at Bush's record in Texas. Gore urged his audience to "fight off any
cynics who say they're all the same and it doesn't make any difference." |
