7.  The media was brutal to Gore. And it was not just RWers

like Rush. The WaPo made up quotes. Mathews and Fineman sounded like junior high school kids sniping at Al and swooning over W's manly attire.
I assume there will be more of this thrown at Obama but I think he has 2 assets that Gore and Kerry did not have. The corporate news media will be at least somewhat leery of being perceived as racist so that may temper some of their worst anti-Democrat tendencies. I also believe that Obama's communication skills are far superior to either Gore, Kerry and Senator Clinton.
