They did it to Dole, and Bush 41, almost did it in 2000, they will succeed in 2004. Their influence in enormous.

Oh bullcrap. Dole ran a loser campaign. Even as a 19 year old who wasn't into politics, I knew Dole got the nomination more as a "Thanks for your service to the GOP" and that he wasn't even really trying to win. Think of it as the ultimate gold watch employee giveaway.

And GHW Bush lost for two reasons: 1) Ross Perot, and 2) He sold us out and agreed to a tax increase. He deserved to get beaten.

At your age I felt the same way, idealistic.

Which is why men like Bush 41 and Dole lost, and a man like Clinton won.

Get back with me in about 20 yrs.

Did America deserve to get Clinton because President Bush wasn't perfect? Did I deserve to endure the humiliation of having Clinton for our President because President Bush wasn't perfect?
