Clinton a
better choice
for some
Dole gets the blue-
collar blues
TAYLOR, Mich. (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.
