Mostly, though, the script lacks any of the title's under­ stated romantic charm, and Andrus just overloads on the sappy Is-this-really-happening and trite We-don't-belong- in-1991 speeches.

So I'll take a brief look at each of them for you. But wait. Here's a fair question: Just because almost every political pundit in America thinks Bush is unbeat­ able, is it fair to conclude no Democrat has a chance? Yes. But, of course, that conclusion is valid only if the election were held tomorrow. Or the next day. If you get much further than two days into the murky future you allow for all kinds of now-unimaginable possibilities that could change things utterly. Well, maybe such possibilities are not altogether un­ imaginable. I myself can imagine a few — and will, too. Suppose, for instance, George Bush dumps Dan Quayle from the ticket and chooses Pee-wee Herman? (OK, that's not a good example because most voters might consider such a move an improvement.) But suppose the president divorces Barbara and starts cohabitating with Ivana Trump or a pack of rabid wea­ sels? Or what if he goes on TV and says Saddam Hussein has been punished enough and the only way to get on with his administration is to issue a full and unconditional pardon to him, along with rights to a Gulfgate TV movie in which Rip Torn would play the Iraqi leader? Well, you can see the potential for GOP disaster here. And, given the fast — almost aerobic — pace of history nowadays, only a fool would deny such a debacle is possible, and maybe even likely. That hope, of course, is what encourages the Democrats who now are elbowing each other around. Well, that hope plus blind ambition and the notion that if they spill their blood in 1992 the party will remember the price they paid PAGE 8 THE CHRONICLE THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1991 Comics
