your word is your bond
The campaign's attempts to codify this death rattle into an
official theme are yielding unintentional comedy. On a crisp
Friday morning in Albuquerque, Dole appeared under a brilliant
sky, beneath giant banners reading TRUST and ETHICS and a
sign on the lectern that said YOUR WORD IS YOUR BOND.
Behind him were two multicolored hot-air balloons that also
said ETHICS and TRUST. As Dole was defending his tax-cut
proposal, the hot air began to escape from the TRUST balloon,
and it staggered to the ground and collapsed.
