On the recordNovember 2, 1998
It's unbelievable. I think it's important that the people listening to us know that they raised over $100 million more than the Democrats did in their Senate and House committees and their national political committees--over $100 million. And they, over and above that, they have a lot of these so-called third-party expenditures where--just in the last 10 days they dropped another $750,000 against a congressional candidate in Michigan, a few hundred thousand dollars they dropped into a television ad campaign attacking one of our Democrats in rural Ohio. I've never seen this kind of money. But we have the message; we have the issues. The country is in good shape, and we can do better. And the public agrees with us on our program, so it's basically their money and our issues and the question of who votes. And that's why this interview is so important to me. Mr. Joyner. Radio stations, I told you I would be running long. I'm running right through the break with the President of the United States. Please hold with us. Ms. Wilkes. Bigger name. 1998 Elections Mr. Joyner. Yes, bigger name. [Laughter] Mr. President, we've talked about what happens if African-Americans turn out to vote tomorrow. What if we don't turn out?
