Such cute revisionist fantasies.
The most "moderate" thing HW did was raise a gasoline tax. Yeah, much further left wing than the oh I don't know, multiple tax raises undertaken by Mr. Conservative Hero Ronald Reagan.
HW's presidential re-election bid, where he addressed most everything with "targeted tax cuts", was hardly the definition of "moderate". Neither was his bending over and having Pat Buchanan deliver his infamous "culture wars" speech at the RNC.
Give me a break.
For the election, I guess Perot. Because both of the other choices SUCK.
Yeah, "Moderate Bush 41" is a complete fraud. The guy sure wasn't a crazy like Cheney or like his son, but he sure was as right-wing as you could get at the time.
