"From my recollections, the dems were whispering among themselves that they were thankful it wasn't Gore.
They can revise their stories but they can't revise the truth.
I was there!"

I believe you. Gore was never nearly as solidly backed and loved by the Democrats as Clinton, but they had no choice since he was the sitting Veep and not nominating him would be admitting they made a mistake. But he was Clintonian vacillation and indecision without Clinton's charm and charisma (as is Kerry).
I'm not saying that none of the Democrats secretly prefer Bush against Al Qaeda & Co., only that I believe someone like Behar could be that way and that she is far from alone.
She was soon fired but it gives you an idea of the hatred for republicans that dwell in the hearts of these entertainment types.
