Republicans Ramp Up Anti-Clinton Rhetoric

HeadlineAug 03, 2000

Making a mid-convention pivot from unity to campaign warfare, the Republicans ramped up their anti-Clinton rhetoric last night as the 2,000 party delegates nominated George W. Bush to the nation’s highest office. Vice-presidential candidate Dick Cheney closed out the evening at the First Union Center with an acceptance speech that rebuked the Clinton and Gore administration time and again. Cheney said on the first hour of the first day he, George W. Bush, will restore decency and integrity to the Oval Office.
