THE 1992 CAMPAIGN: Campaign Journal; Now, Journalists Renege On Election Promises
Date: 31 January 1992

It is still early in the Presidential campaign, as political analysts have repeatedly determined, but the press coverage is beginning to take a familiar shape. In fact, this week there were two events on national television that could ultimately qualify as official defining moments. The first, of course, was when Gov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas went on "60 Minutes" to make what was probably the most public confession in the history of marriage problems. The next came Tuesday night when Mr. Clinton's confession was analyzed -- along with questions on the economy and President Bush's understanding of the middle class -- by what was probably the largest biased sample in the history of instant polling.

How could they possibly have a new idea? Applying "defining moment" to that perennial brain-glazer, the State of the Union speech, should have told us how things stood: to wit, that this outfit is so sure it's home safe for another four years that it doesn't even feel the need for fresh bluster, much less a fresh thought.
