“Back in 1992 Senator Gore was a conservative Democrat.

LOL!! JOKE OF THE DAY....What’s the punch line? “

Actually, the original poster that you are replying to is correct. Gore got Clinton the religious vote. He was anti-rock music and all that. He was considered very conservative, of the Jerry Fallwell type. He and Tipper secured the Bible-Belt vote for Clinton, the same folks who voted for Carter.

Would he have been considered a fiscal conservative? No, that was Clintons job, remember Clinton hammered home the economy to people, while Gore’s job was to hammer home the Christian angle... and he did.

Clinton was not doing well at all with Southern Christians, and Gore was selected as his VP just for that reason.

Are you serious? You are assuming his faith made him a conservative? LOL! Like Pelosi and Kennedy with their faith.
