Bennett to Lead RNC. GOP Gains Doubtful Yet Hopeful
William Bennett’s appointment as chairman of the Republican National Committee is seen as potentially boosting GOP prospects for 1992.

Bennetts’ career lacks campaign management experience but his conviction may energize conservatives. The GOP faces redistricting risks and lingering deficits as it seeks a unified, common-sense platform with renewed momentum.
