...heart? No thanks, that species grew like kudzu in her small Southern town. How about the spinning wheels of the upscale drudge, playing with his toy trains and his whiny mistress? Nope, Linda's got one too many of those already: her husband, Dr. Henry Henry (Christopher Lloyd). His idea of smooth talk is bedtime baby talk...
...then, none of the candidates live up to their TV models. Lloyd Bentsen, the tall, craggy Texan, could go for either tough (the late Jim Davis as Jock Ewing on Dallas) or folksy (Andy Griffith as Matlock). But his passionless style fails to register as either character. Dukakis has the mark of a man doomed to be portrayed in TV movies by Sam Waterston. And Bush is still overshadowed by the era's only politician actually to define and surpass his Hollywood model: Ronald Reagan...
...remain intact. A number of prospects will hope to crack the women's ice hockey starting line-up and send Harvard to its third straight Ivy title. The recruits include: Cici Clark of South Hamilton, Mass.; Sandra Colt of Wenham, Mass.; Elizabeth Hanson of Lincoln, Mass.; Courtney Hurley of Lloyd Harbor, N.Y.; Lauren Messmore of Hartford, Conn.; Virginia Simon of Manchester, Mass.; Beverley Stickles of Concord, Mass. and Sandra White of Saugas, Mass...

Bentsen has so far been especially effective in reassuring Texans who worry about Dukakis' liberalism that at least one voice in the candidate's ear understands and speaks for conservative Texas social values. In addition, Bentsen brings to the ticket two powerful assets: a grass-roots organization throughout Texas' 254 counties and a pile of money. Bentsen is simultaneously running for re- election to the Senate...
Bush praises his running mate Dan Quayle on the peculiar grounds that he "damn sure never burned the American flag," as if Dukakis or Lloyd Bentson or anyone in mainstream public life ever did. Meanwhile, other Republicans spread the baseless rumor that there are photographs of Kitty Dukakis burning the flag. If Bush thinks that kind of thing has no place in the campaign, he lacks the gallantry to say so. He also lacks the candor to say straight out about his opponent what he suggests by innuendo...
