  It should have been easy. They were battle-tested veterans with long ties to Reagan and even longer ties to the Republican party, men who understood presidential politics as well as any in the country. The backdrop of the campaign was hospitable, with lots of good news to work with: America was at peace, and the nation’s economy, a key factor in any election, was rebounding vigorously after recession. Furthermore, the campaign itself was lavishly financed, with plenty of money for a top-flight staff, travel, and television commercials. And, most important, their candidate was Ronald Reagan, a president of tremendous personal popularity and dazzling communication skills. Reagan has succeed more than any president since John F. Kennedy in projecting a broad vision of America – a nation of renewed military strength, individual initiative, and smaller federal government.

  【参考译文】

  这应该是一件容易的事。他们是跟随里根多年,久经沙场的老将,与共和党是有着更深的渊源,是这个国家最熟悉总统政治的人。精选的背景也很有利,有很多的新闻可以炒作。例如:美国上下一片和平,国家经济,竞选的一个关键因素也在经过一段时间的衰退之后进行强有力的反弹。还有,这次竞选本身就收到了慷慨资助,可以比较充裕地培养一流竞选班子,支付巡回演讲以及电视广告的费用。最重要的是,他们的候选人是罗纳德里根,一个有着极高的个人魅力,精湛的沟通技巧的一位总统,里根是自肯尼迪,F林肯以来的最成功地勾勒出美国蓝图的一位总统——一个军事力量复兴。富有个人创新精神的,联邦政府得以精简的国家。
