We arc preparing for the same degree of su~ss in the 1994 election::.;, which are the elections upon which we are exclusively focused. I will be comparing Republican ideas and proposals to the wrong-headed policies bcins put forward by President Clinton. I will emphasize the elLt.reniely positive effect this c.omparison had for our party and our candidates last year. Bob.I have enclosed a copy ofa memorandum I am sending to members oftheRNC touching upon the key themes and messages for the meeting. ~ you can see I have tried to leave the subject of your r~marks as broad as possible in order to allow you the opportunity to talk about whatever you think best fits our general theme. As you can see from the attached schedule, we have an outstanding program a.nd group of speakers. · I genuinely appreciate your taking time to be with us. md I know the Committee is excited about hearing from you. nwii)ht D EIM>n hower Rer."wl:-lican Cen\ e1 • 310 Firl>I ~:i\reet Sowtheiast •Washington.

These momentous events offer us four separate opportunities to deliver our message loud and clear acro11 the nation. f The first opportunity is our Winter RNC meeting this week. It will be heavily covered by the r national media, and I am anxious they recoif\ize that Republicans not only had a tremendously l. successful year in 1993, but a.re optimistic about and prepared for an equally productive 1994. "Successful" and "optimistic" are. tho two best words to dcscnoc our Partyi and I hope that is obvious in D.C. this week Here are some thoughts on points we would like to put across: • The reasons for our winning all six of the six biggest elections in the la.st year: we had the best candidates, did the best jcb of involving people in our campaigns and advocated tho best idoas. The dominant issues of '93 were ti1Xes and crime, and both proved to be tO;the RepuNican advantage. Governors Christie Whitman and George Allen will address those two issues when they speak at our luncheon Friday. • Because we a.re focused on the future, our theme for the meeting will be dEven More in '94.'' Clinton'li proposals helped us in '93, especially hb tax bill. We expect hiti proposals to help us in 1994 as well. He talks a good game on crime and welfare reform, but he doesn't follow through v.~th legislation . Republican proposals on these i..;sucs and health care reform are far superior to Clinton·~. and the public is recognizing that as the debate inten1>ifies. House Minority L.eader Newt Gingrich will speak Friday morning on the issue agenda and how it helped and will continue to help Republicans. • We increued our support among minorities in 1993. Attached is a brief memo about t11e increased vote we r~.ceived from various groups l~t year, all of which far e4ceeded our 1992 · ()wight D.

On Saturday morning, columnist Tony Brown will moderate a ses~ion on outreach, and R.oprc11cnt4tiYc:~ Henry Bonilla and Susan Molinui will juin RNC members in discus~ing the successes and opportunities • We have a continuing goal of stating the differences between Clinton's proposals and our alternatives. Two of our national leaders, Senator Bob Dole and Secretary Jack Kemp, will speak Saturday at breakfast and lunch, respectively, on the positive devel('lpments of last ye.ar and their optimism for '94, • All the speakers will try to keep us focused on 1994. Some members of the media wii.l want to focus on 1996 but I hope we will not allow them to di:i.tract our attention from the critical •94 elections. With our excellent candidate recruiting, the successes of 1993 and the RNC's strong financial positior'i we have many reastms to be optimistic. and focused on '94. • Some members have asked for talking points on the Whitewater/Madison Savings and Loan matter. Ncitht:r l nor the RNC has iss\.led tt stalement, put out a press relca~e or distiibuted talking points or guidance on this matter. I did not and do not want to abet the White House cla.im that this scandal is the result of partisan politics. It's not, a fact whh which most people agree. NevertheJess, l strongly counsel our people to steer clear of this topic. • Finally, as you prepare your own phms on how to capitalize on the news· making and me.s8'lge- delivery opportunities that lie ahead in the next three weeks. our Radio Actuality ScIVice staff will be making an aggressive effort to record your "sound-bite>' reactions to these events for later use by news stations in your home state. In addition to the memo you've ilready re<:eived urging yo-u to set up your own news event on tho Monday or Tuesday prior to the State of the Uruon address, you will also recelve at the meeting a comprehensive news package.
