Among other garbage, here for time number 8,000,000,000 or so we are spoon-fed the nonsense that the "Willie Horton" affair was some nefarious Republican plot that is looked upon with shame and wariness by the media. Don't buy it, and take just a second to reject every such attempt at re-writing history. Dukakis was fairly and soundly defeated because America did not want his liberal policies, of which Horton was just one example. Horton was and is a murderous psychopath who should have been executed or at the least kept in jail for life.
