MIAMI (AP) President Clinton told Democrats at a rally here Saturday
night he's ''tried to be a good president for Florida'' and wants people like
his brother-in-law Hugh Rodham in the U.S. Senate to keep his agenda moving.
''I know the uphill battle Hugh faces, the president told a crowd of
about 250 at a small but enthusiastic campaign rally for Rodham at the Port of
Miami. ''But what do you hire a senator for?''
He said Republican Sen. Connie Mack votes an ''automatic no" against his
proposals and is part of the force in the Senate that blocked several
bipartisan bills at the end of the session.
' 'He could stay here in Florida and punch a computer and vote 'No,
Clinton said of Mack.
The president, who campaigned earlier Saturday in Connecticut, complained
about Republican opposition to a bill for the cleanup of toxic chemicals, and
reform of lobbying and campaign finance laws.
''Hugh's campaign would be in better shape if we had campaign reform, he
said, as Rodham smiled broadly in agreement.
The president said his administration has made a good start toward
bringing the economy back and making the government more responsive to working
people.
As the Clintons approached the dais, a man wearing a Haitian flag cried
out: ' 'We love you. Your heart is good.'
Clinton said Saturday was ''a day of celebration because President
Aristide went home, because the Haitian people can now go home and we can see
democracy and development.
He reminded the crowd about programs that have helped Floridians,
including initiatives to make college loans easier to get, the tax cut for
working families, more police brought with the crime bill, the renewal of the
space station program and federal help for South Florida's hurricane
recovery.
Clinton asked the crowd to vote for Rodham ''if you want somebody who will
say yes to your future and give us a chance to keep moving.
Rodham told the crowd that when he heard about "this exhibition of family
values, I got a little nervous for the first time in my life.
Hillary Rodham Clinton, who campaigned for her brother earlier this month
before he won a primary runoff, conceded he faces a tough fight.
'When you run against someone with 100 percent name recognition, it is a
big uphill battle, she said. "But no one in my family has walked away from
a battle they believed in, and my brother believes in this one.
At least 50 people attended a 1,000-a-person cocktail reception before
the rally, and campaign officials said more than $50,000 was raised for
Rodham's campaign. Rodham had raised $450,000 total before Saturday, compared
to $2.5 million for Mack, a first-term senator.
The crowd was small for a presidential visit, and Dade County Democratic
Chairman Joe Geller blamed ''the short notice'' given for the visit by the
Clintons. Campaign manager Tony Rodham said the rally has been in the works
for ''about a week.'
The president and first lady also attended a fund-raising dinner at the
home of Miami businessman Hugh Westbrook and his wife Carole Shields which
raised close to a million dollars for Senate candidates across the country.
The event was held at Westbrook's estate overlooking Biscayne Bay with
music provided by the Florida Philharmonic. The dinner was attended by wealthy
Democrats and politicans from Florida and across the country.
Westbrook said the $1 million raised at the dinner means the Democratic
9enatorial Campaign Committee will be able to contribute the maximum to 19
senatorial campaigns across the country, twice what the committee has been
able to do in the past
Clinton, complimented Sen. Bob Graham of Florida, the committee's
chairman, for the fund-raising success for Senate campaigns this year.
Democrats are fighting to hold their
The Clintons have turned up their criticism of Republicans recently,
warning the GOP is closely allied with lobbyists and wants to return to the
policies of the Reagan years. Clinton's approval rating in a new Time/CNN poll
is still a low 44 percent, but his disapproval rating had dropped six points
to 47 percent.
Some Democratic candidates have distanced themselves from the Clintons,
but not Rodham, who has eagerly awaited the attention of
a presidential visit.
The money raised at the dinner will go to the Democratic Senatorial
Campaign Committee, which must decide what races could use its help. Rodham's
campaign, 45 points behind in one poll, may not qualify for help.
' 'We are evaluating this race to see if our involvement could make a
difference,'' Graham, Florida's senior senator, said recently.
Several Cuban Americans protested in downtown Miami for Clinton to allow
the more than 30,000 Cubans refugees detained at camps at the U.S. Naval Base
at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and in Panama to come to this country. Clinton
ordered them detained in August to avoid a repeat of the 1980 Mariel boatlift.
The Clinton administration on Friday said it would allow several hundred
elderly, sick and child refugees to come to this country for humanitarian
reasons.
' 'We are improving conditions at Guantanamo and bringing the elderly and
young children here, said Clinton. ''Much of the credit goes to my
sister-in-law (Maria Arias Rodham) and my brother-in-law.'
But that wasn't enough to suit the Cuban American protesters.
'`This is criminal. This is not democratic. This is not American,' said
Rafael Menendez, 47, who was at one of the protests Saturday. ''I am
ashamed.
