Transcription
TRANSCRIPTION: Michael Dukakis says he's on your side make up your own mind. As Governor. He vetoed the death penalty. Even for the murder of a policeman. He vetoed mandatory jail sentences for drug dealers. He supported furloughs for murderers not even eligible for parole. He opposed weapon systems vital to our defense. He vetoed a bill to require teachers to lead children in the Pledge of Allegiance. Now he wants to do for America. What he's done for Massachusetts? America can't afford that risk. Risk.
