POINT CLEAR, Ala.
President-elect George Bush's cam
paign manager, setting "black out
reach" as a top goal for the Repub
lican Party's future, said Monday the
GOP has formed a political base that
could hold the White House for
decades.
Lee Atwater, tapped to be the new
Republican National Committee
chairman, told the nation's GOP
governors that in the last three
presidential races the party has laid
claim to enough key states that it
"could and should win the presidency
right on through the next century."
Atwater spoke to the annual
National Republican Governors
Conference along with Bush's chief
of staff-designate, New Hampshire
Gov. John Sununu. The agenda also
included two newly named Bush
Cabinet figures, Attorney General

The president-elect speaks Tuesday
to the conference, which is being held
at the Grand Hotel resort on Mobile

Sununu said the initial Cabinet
announcements have begun forming
the administration's economic team.
He said the next announcements
probably will be after Thanksgiving
with "the focus shifting to the defense
side."
Atwater, reviewing the 1988 cam
paign and looking to GOP hopes for
coming election years, said the party
has "an opportunity in the black
community," which has been solidly
Democratic. In the conference hall
Monday, there were only a couple of

As for his own role, which has been
viewed by Democratic critics as
lowering the level of the presidential
campaign, Atwater said: "I'm not
going to try to be a national celebrity."
Atwater drew laughter from the
Republican crowd when he referred
to Bush's Democratic foe, Massachu
setts Gov. Michael Dukakis. "I'm not
going to say anything bad about them
at this point. I can't think of anything
bad about them that I didn't say in
the campaign," he said.
Atwater's predecessor on the
national GOP committee, Frank
Fahrenkopf, said the Democrats
problem in 1988 was "the wrong,
message with the wrong messenger."
"A tremendous political realign
ment has already taken "place," he
said. "We have parity on the battle
field now."

Chicago mayoral election set
SPRINGFIELD, 111. The
Illinois Supreme Court set the
stage Monday for Chicago's third
mayoral free-for-all in six years,
ruling that voters must decide who
serves the last two years of the late
Mayor Harold Washington's
term.
Siding with city officials who
scheduled a Feb. 28 primary and
an April 4 general election next
year, rather than waiting until
1 99 1 , the court said Mayor Eugene
Sawyer's appointment by the City
Council after Washington's death
does not extend through 1991,
when Washington's term ends.
Washington died of a heart
attack on Nov. 25, 1987, less than
eight months after, winning a
second term.
