	Apparently Clinton yesterday made reference to the capabilities of cruise missles
while refering to them as patriot missles. I saw no coverage of this on any of the major
network news programs last night and only heard about it on two Boston radio stations.
	If Bush or Quayle made such a gaff it would be the lead on all four networks,
e.g. potatoe and Pearl Harbor Day in Sept. (during the 88 campaign).


The above is my opinion and in no way reflects the views or opinions of my employer.

	Just a small note here. CNN did cover the gaff with an explanation
	of the differance between the two. What I think will be interesting 
	here is wether they carry on about it for a few days or just let it
	go away. ie. we are still hearing about the "potatoe" incident.
