I'm actually writing a research paper about the 1988 campaign. Lee Atwater really was the man responsible for turning a 17 point loss in the polls into an 8 point win on election day. Without Atwater, I don't think the Bush campaign would have had the guts to attack the way Atwater did.
I would also give more to Dukakis on election day. In a 6 point win, I also would have given him Delaware, New Jersey, Montana, and South Dakota, giving him 331 in the electoral college.
