...Rick Lloyd hit two free throws and Thompson scored on a 15-footer in the first minute of OT to give Brown the lead for good...
...nature of the Dukakis defeat virtually guarantees four years of Democratic doctrinal debate, since nearly all factions in the party can concoct self-serving rationales for the setback. The party's Southern moderates will point to the popularity of Lloyd Bentsen as evidence that the 1992 nominee must be tough on defense and immune to Republican attacks on social issues. Jesse Jackson and the left-leaning liberals will decry Dukakis' ideological blandness. Even the party centrists, whose position has been weakened by the twin failures of Mondale and Dukakis, can with some justice argue that a better candidate might...
...Lloyd Bentsen might have put it, Bush was no Reagan in terms of vacuuming up demographic groups. In the last presidential election, voters in union households tilted only slightly toward the Democratic ticket, 53% to 47%. This year they went 59% for Dukakis.

Reagan in 1984 seemed to lock up the political future for his party by corralling a solid 59% of voters between 18 and 24 years old. This week Dukakis carried that youngest set, 51% to 49%. The next age group, those...

Given his wrinkles (and his plight), Lloyd Bentsen's grin was hard to distinguish from a wince. Off to the side, Dan Quayle was giving high school students his version of the Stephen Sondheim lyric "Lovely is the one thing...
...chance. His stump speech avoided personal attacks on Hill leaders. When Dukakis started scoring heavily on Ed Meese and sleaze, Bush countered with a call for an investigation of House Majority Leader Jim Wright, but quickly dropped the matter after Meese resigned. Similarly, even while his old Texas friend Lloyd Bentsen was attacking him daily on the stump, often in intimate terms, Bush avoided even a single personal criticism of the powerful Senate Finance Committee chairman throughout the entire campaign...
