Who do you think should’ve gotten the nomination over Dole? Just curious.

Steve Forbes was my choice.

Who do you think should’ve gotten the nomination over Dole? Just curious.

As I recall we had Dole, Alexander, Buchanan, Forbes, I think Phil Gramm was in for a while and Alan Keyes as well.
Pretty slim pickings, given Bob Doles huge name recognition from having run twice before. (sounds kinda like Mitt)
He was 'picked' before the primaries even really started. Forbes and Buchanan tried, but it was uphill all the way and the establishment had chosen...
Personally I liked Keyes, then forbes, then buchanan then dole...but...I was in Nebraska at the time and by the time May rolled around...the choosing was all but done.

Dole should have had the political sense, and common sense to realize he HAD no chance.

What world was he living in then?

ANY engaged Republican voter KNEW it was a "well he's earned it" nod to him by the GOP-e...

I'm "lot's of cuss words here" done with the GOP-e....and them attempting to flim-flam and rope a dope me and my family anymore. Dole, McCain, and now Romney.....?????

I'm so done. They don't even have a glue how done....
