...remember when yellow invaded the Entenmann's box, the badge of fat-freedom. First, it was merely the oatmeal raisin cookies and the chocolate fudge brownie cookies. Now, all sorts of different cakes and pies can be found with the yellow label. Fat-free then spread like an aggressive virus. From cookies to cottage cheese, to yogurt, to cream cheese, sour cream, to mayonnaise. Do they still make the navy-labeled Hellmann...

Dukakis learned what happens to a Democratic nominee who runs with a Liberal label. When he told the 1988 convention that the election would be about "competence," not "ideology," Republicans pounced. Clearly, Clinton, too, thought that his liberalism was a handicap and hence he tried to change the outcome by changing his approach. He talked about the breakdown of family and urged people...
