Answer:

-Compromise with Congress.

In 1990 he raised various taxes and broke his election promise. This caused great displeasure, especially among conservative Republicans who voted for him. Four years later, during the 1992 campaign for his re-election, both his competitor in the Republican primaries, Pat Buchanan, and his Democratic opponent, Bill Clinton, reminded him of this broken promise, which was in fact one of the causes why he lost against Clinton.
