Republicans sadly watched Mr. Bush become the third one-term President in 20 years. "He was a good man, he was a good President," said Representative Vin Weber of Minnesota, a co-chairman fo the Bush campaign. "But he thought that if he simply did the right thing, people would understand. Whereas I think Reagan understood the need to communicate your vision."

Lynn Martin, the Secretary of Labor, said of the voters last night, "They understand about world affairs, but they were worried about their own."

But there was also Republican anger; Mary Matalin, deputy manager of the Bush campaign, accused the news media of bias last night in their coverage of the 1992 election. Ahead, many Republicans feared, was a round of soul-searching, finger-pointing and a struggle to recast their party for an era beyond the cold war, an era that seems relentlessly focused on domestic needs.

All of the above ruin them when they lack a reality, they indulge in their own depravity for they are the many

Mr. Bush, looking weary but composed, made his concession speech shortly after 11 P.M. in Houston. "The people have spoken and we respect the majesty of the Democratic system," he said. Mr. Bush congratulated Mr. Clinton, but did not mention Mr. Perot, and promised that his own Administration would "work closely with his team to insure the smooth transition of power."

Vice President Dan Quayle made his concession speech in Indianapolis a few minutes later and like Mr. Bush congratulated Mr. Clinton and hushed the boos. "We must all pull together now. If he runs the country as well as he ran the campaign, we'll be all right."

Congressional leaders said they welcomed the new era beyond divided government. "We welcome the challenge and the responsibility," said Senator George Mitchell of Maine, the majority leader.

Mr. Bush, at the same time, fell from great heights as the economy continued to falter. He spent much of the year trying to convince the voters that the country was in better shape than they thought. Still, the voter surveys showed that seven in 10 voters considerd the economy either poor or "not so good," and Mr. Clinton ran strongly among them.

I am happy with those who will stand with me – not so much you fake narratives who pretend they are women with not an iota of reality

Who will stand with me ( reality is required)
