I think quite a few conservatives donated to those two,, Gore and Bentson weren't considered liberal then
Give us some recognizable names of those "quite a few conservatives" who donated to Gore or Bentson.
Gore and Benston were clearly to the left of their Republican opponents. More germanely, neither Gore nor Benston supported juridicial originalism. If Miers is such a big originalist, as Bush maintains, why was she contributiing to those bozos?
