The media coined (or at least popularized) the term "angry white man" in November 1994.

The media termed 1992 "The Year of the Woman" because women put Clinton in the White House.

The media termed 1994 "The Year of the Angry White Man" because white men gave the House and Senate to the Republicans.

I noted the difference. "The Year of the Woman" vs. "The Year of the Angry White Man.

Weren't all those female Clinton voters angry? We had been told they were, because of the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas hearings. Yet still, it was not how the 1992 Democratic victory was characterized.

I also remember MTV hosting a televised "star-studded" party to celebrate democracy after the election. They did it again in 1996. They were going to do it again in 2000, but canceled after Bush won. The excuse was the controversy over the election.

BTW, it was Rush that played the audio clips that I recall.
