We are marching for the poor

A bombshell dropped overnight, Chuck.

:48:30
The morning finds us with a story destined
to be troubling for the Bob Roberts campaign.

:48:35
From our sister station in Harrisburg,
correspondent Rock Bork.

:48:39
Behind me was once
the West Pennsylvania Savings and Loan

:48:43
which until last year was a viable thrift.
:48:45
Federal regulators closed the bank
:48:48
and began an investigation of improprieties
involving misuse of funds.

:48:52
Today comes information that Lukas Hart III,
Bob Roberts' campaign chairman,

:48:56
may be subpoenaed to tell the regulators
what he knows about Broken Dove

:49:01
and unpaid housing loans.
:49:04
Hello, reality check. Broken Dove ripping off
S&Ls? Its altruism surpasses net worth.

:49:09
Broken Dove whose donations
to hospitals keep youngsters off drugs.

:49:12
- Accuse your enemy of your worst crime.
- Disinformation.

:49:15
- Credo hipocritus.
- Pot calling the kettle black.

:49:17
Terry, most political campaigns
would pale in comparison,

:49:22
but this one is a peach.
:49:24
- It's like a vicious, hard-fought game.
- [Man bellows]

:49:28
Close to the final minute,
absolute chaos reigns

:49:32
and then one team explodes
right through the proverbial roof.

:49:37
The dust settles, the blood is flowing,
it's a massacre

:49:40
but one team is jumping up and down
with big, silly grins on their faces.

:49:44
That's gonna be us, Terry.
That's what it's all about, fun.

:49:47
There's nothing like the unbridled fun
of a hard-fought campaign.

:49:50
- He's down!
- Bob! Bob!

:49:52
- Stay down!
- [Woman] My God! Bob!

:49:55
[All shouting]
:49:59
- Seal the wound!
- Call an ambulance!
