Lee Atwater was a genius and knew exactly what he was doing.
That ad had scary nig**** are coming to kill and rape your wives and daughters all over it.  The ad was factaully accurate in many ways but it was the subtext that made it so succcessful.  Dukasis being such a detached whimp in the debate question on what he would do if his wife were raped only enforced his image as completely wrong on law and order.  Law and order had a lot more resonance iin those days as most cities were spiraling out of control.  I don't think some of our younger posters can realize how horrible many cities were.
