Right you are.

Indeed, re: Tenn. (Gore really from D.C.)

>>when he held his “victory party” outside here in Nashville’s downtown, we had a rare November thunderstorm that evening.

Ah. In 05 I spent a day or so in Nashville area and walked around the general area of the Capitol bldg—Jackon and Johnson monuments, etc. I thought this was where they all gathered for what was to be the Gore victory party (in 04, a big crowd gathered in Boston for what was to be Kerry’s
victory party, complete with a broadcast by then-Air America talker Al Franken. An article from CNS News
Online: “Kerry party turns to tears, bitterness”...

Wikipedia entry on Tenn.: “In the 2000 presidential election, Vice President Al Gore, a former U.S. Senator from Tennessee, failed to carry his home state (sic; as you say, he was more from D.C.), an unusual occurrence”.
W won it 51 to 47 per cent.

The "victory rally" for Gore was held at the War Memorial Plaza, which is just south (below) the state capitol building.

At the present time, it is infested by "Occupy Nashville" vermin round the clock, for whom are being protected by an ultraliberal Democrat federal judge. State legislators are working to get a bill through to clean the scum off the plaza.
