(65,169 posts)immediately after the Senate didn't convict Clinton by a narrow margin.
That transferred lack of integrity propaganda worked most effectively in the moderate to conservative reddish states where the margin of error was not so great as in the deep blue states.
Furthermore, Gore didn't distance him self from Clinton it was the other way around.
During the height of the impeachment saga just as the Senate would decide whether to convict or not, Clinton had Gore and Hillary stand on the White House Lawn by his side and defend him.
Clinton paid Gore back for his loyalty by taking an inordinate amount of time during the 2000 Convention just walking down a hall way to the podium so the cameras and people could gaze at his "splendor," this wasteful arrogance didn't help Gore one bit at a convention that was supposed to be about Al, not Bill.
How much would Gore have been aided had Clinton used his vaunted oratory skills promoting Gore at the podium instead of wasting precious, primetime, airtime walking down a hallway in a masturbatory exercise?
