No, MNR, I didn't make myself clear. It was I who made the mistake in assuming that Clinton would resign. He would have had to have been removed.

So in that regard, you are correct. Nevertheless, even upon removal, Gore would have ascended to the Presidency. I regret that given the character of the American electorate in 2000, the only way a President Al Gore could have lost to then-Governor Bush is for President Gore to be caught in bed with a dead girl or a live boy.

Remeber, even after the Monks, even after the Chernomyrdin Affair, Gore still won the popular vote when he manifestly should not have.

Remember how many freaking idiots ended up voting for Gore because of the DUI leak? That's how Gore got his "majority".

Sheesh.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

Of course we are both indulging in conjecture so this is just for conversation purposes but my point is that Gore would have been tarred with the same brush as Clinton, therefore just as guilty, so that if Clinton had been removed, after all he was impeached but accepted it as a badge of honor, but if he had been removed, Gore would have been forced to resign or face the same fate.

I have enjoyed our exchange but we will neither ever know.
