Yeah, he was a conservative Democrat back then and even came up with the Willie Horton ad that Bush 1 gets blamed for.

Your source for that? That ad was produced, aired and paid for by Americans for Bush. I don't know what the designation was then, but it was the equivalent of a 501(c)(3).

There might have been another Willie Horton ad in the primaries, but I don't recall it.

Your right, he didn’t actually come up with the actual ad or any ad for that matter. He used Willie Horton as an example of Dukakas’s weakness on crime but didn’t mention he was black, which was what pissed off the libs back than.
