Bush stays ahead but Dukakis wins the debate Puffers around the U.S. were intrigued when R.J. Reynolds tobacco company dis- closed that it had developed a virtually smokeless cigarette. Beginning October 1, it was test-marketed a? Premier in St. Louis. Phoenix, and Tucson. The user lights Pre- mier like a regular cigarette, but a carbon element at its tip warms (he enclosed tobac- co and flavorings rather than burning them. How many of you thought I won? a jaunty Micheal Dukakis asked his audience in Peoria, III. Loud cheers made it unanimous; the Democrat has beat George Bush in their debate two days earlier. Even the Vice President ' s aides privately agreed. A few of them came close to panic during the debate, fearing that Bush ' s performance would create a reac- tion that could roll out of control, said by one advisor.

More than a quarter of the probable voters in a survey said they were either undecided or might Bush in Illinois, trying to expel his rival from the mainstream: I am the American people, and I share your values change their minds before Election Day. The major difference in party loyalty is among Democrats who voted for Reagan in 1984. Can Dukakis recapture that group and increase his support among independents? yes, but not easily. Dukakis must first find a way to reduce the age gap. Many younger Americans only know Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan as Presidents. The comparison tips them to the Republicans. Bush has learned many lessons from Reagan. They have worked for him so far in 1988, and he needs to milk them only until Nov. 8. Bush And Dukakis —
