Moderate positions like climate change needs solutions? Or support for gay rights? All that in 2000. Why are you quoting old stuff and ignoring his positions from 1999.
I like how you declared that progs supported Clinton and now you are deriding Gore as a conservative just because he lost.
Overall he was a conservative democrat and progs where in no mood for another conservation southern dem after Clinton's shift to the right.Yall should have nominated the prog acceptable Bradley.
Clinton shifted to right before his re-election and you said progs supported it. Remember welfare reform? Sounds like you are shifting arguments based on who won and lost rather than their actual policies.
Prog support for Clinton dropped after his triangulation bullshit and doing nothing in his 2nd term.They certainly were in mood for Gore picking up where Clinton left off.
And what happened in 2004, progs saw the Iraq invasion, the tax cuts and decided to not support Kerry because?
a "conservative dem" back then would've been perfectly fine. It's not like we live in 2000 levels of moderacy. DNC should've picked a better speaker. Voters on both sides won't go vote for someone w/o charisma, as dumb as that is. Plus stolen election decided by SCOTUS.
