129. Not at all, just pointing out that Bush was actively pushing for Muslim
and Arab votes at the time. I always thought that was an unusual dynamic.

But, no Kerry person I know has anything against Gore.

In fact, many see them both in similar ways.

I never thought Gore was anything like the media portrayed just as Kerry was never what the media portrayed.

I wished both Gore and Kerry handled the lies about them more aggressively and had better surrogates facing the RW onslaught in the media - but that's really an overall Dem problem.

And when I pointed out that Gore's uneven appearances during his campaign were caused by a mild form of stagefright, it was as way of explanation knowing that he suffered from stagefright when he joined the senate, though some jumped on it and called it bashing.

Nope - both Kerry and Gore have more similarities than they do differences, and I would submit that it's likely true about their supporters, as well.
