Correction: Clinton didn't just rape one woman, he raped several (like four)
Someone posted the name of them yesterday on an other thread that I had posted
No, because the remainder of Clinton’s term would have been less than 2 years. So Al could potentially have been elected 2 times.
I'll agree that he confused the issue by mentioning Clinton resigning in 1998 to begin with.
Furthermore, he erred by stating that the Democrats would have retained control of the Presidency for an additional 8 to 10 years.
That's because they had control for the duration of Clinton's term regardless who served that term out.
Thus the Democrats would have only gained 4 more years, if he had resigned and Gore won election to serve the limit he could legally serve after taking over for Bill Clinton. Or 8 more years had he been removed from office & Gore served 2 additional terms in addition to completing the term that started with Bill Clinton as President.
Our respective observations are not mutually exclusive.
Both could be true.
Damn, that was funny while listening to George Carlin!
But to be sirius, you got my point. Any one making definable recriminations based off nothing but conjecture sure makes for a messy plate.
But then I forgot to add this . . . .
remember that old saying about thing are not as they seem?
Actually, if they booted him, it would have been past the 2 year mark, so it would have ended up with Gore having less than 2 years, so he would have run, and had the incumbent advantage, and the close election would probably have turned towards Gore. The next election, he would have done so much damage, he would probably have had armed guards at the polling places ensuring they voted Gore.
