"We will keep every seat in South Carolina and in Georgia," Gingrich said, regarding Republican congressional election prospects. "And we will retain control [of the House]." According to Gingrich, the Republican agenda also includes a proposal to cut taxes for the middle class, making $1,261 available after taxes to an American family of four with an income of $30,000.

American histoi Clinton, Dole reinforce ideas of first debate ADAM SNYDER Staff Writer In a townhall format, President Bill Clinton and former ^ .i-kt-TNi j j ; J iJ _l senator dod uoie squarea on in tne secona round 01 me presidential debates last night. Dole and Clinton took to the floor to field questions from fellow Americans. Citizens of San Diego surrounded the candidates physically and with questions. The two candidates answered questions and provided rebuttals to their opponents comments on issues. For the most part, the debate remained civil. "They have a different style. Dole is attacking. Clinton is playing not to lose," senior Justin Hill said. "I think Dole did too much mudslinging," freshman Natasha Richardson said. Much like the first debate in Hartford on Oct. 6, Dole opened the debate attacking and jabbing at Clinton, but the President refused to respond at first. "Many Americans have lost faith in the government," Dole said. "They see scandals on an almost daily basis. They see ethical problems in the White House today." "No attack ever created a job," Clinton responded. Then he later said, "I could answer a lot of these things tit for tat. But I hope we can talk about what we're going to do in the future." Tm very disappointed in the American public and the lack of character not being an issue. I think this shows the moral decline in?America and where we've gone in the last century," senior Wayne Ridgeway said. While Clinton seemed to dodge ethical questions, a member of the audience asked Dole if he believed his age is an important issue. Dole responded by saying he has the experience, the knowledge and the wisdom to lead the country into the 21st century. "It is the'age of his ideas I object to," Clinton said. "When you don't have any ideas, I guess you say the other person's ideas are old," Dole retorted. "I'm going to vote Republican, but I think the debates hurt Bob Dole. He's not as smooth as he needs to be and part of that is that he is an older man Youth is in in America and Bill Clinton comes across as very appealing," Ridgeway said. "I think the president's age doesn't really matter," Hill said. Issues of health care, medicaid, medicare, taxes and military spending were discussed by the candidates. Most comments rehashed those from the first debate. "Politicians are good at not actually saying anything at all," Hill said. "I don't think the debates really change anything, and I still haven't decided who I am going to vote for," Richardson said. Not all eyes were on the San Diego debates. While the three major networks carried coverage of the candidates, FOX had Game Six of the National League Championship Series. "I'm not into politics that much and could really care less. To me all that stuff doesn't affect me right now, but it will when I get older," senior Brad Davis said. Vorth Carolina team. They ?f the tenth annual tournament.
