(AP) — Elmer Gauvin doesn’t begrudge Bob Dole his spring celebration, but he has a message for the GOP standard-bearer: “This is Clinton country.” Hearing that, Larry Morin feels compelled to chime in. “The Republican party is not for the common man,”says the semire- tired engineer. It is a long way from March to November. As Dole looks be yond Tuesday’s Midwest pri maries to the fall contest with President Clinton, there are troubling signs for him in places like Taylor, a blue-collar bastion outside Detroit. Here, and in like-minded working class suburbs, many vot ers earned the nickname Reagan Democrats by crossing over to vote Republican in the 1980s. As they look ahead to November, many of these voters say they are back in the Democratic fold. “I think Clinton betrayed the unions,” said Dean Rabe, a Unit ed Auto Workers member in Illi nois. Still, faced with a Dole-Clin- ton choice, “I’ll probably have to go with Clinton,” Rabe said. Dole will have a hard time winning if this sentiment carries into November. As he makes his pitch, Dole would be wise to learn some thing from the blue-collar ap peal of rival Pat Buchanan.
