Actually, Bob Dole was always a pretty good guy—except when he ran for president.

I have always suspected that maybe it was a Bob Dole clone who ran, and not the real man. Or maybe his political handlers were putting something in his food. Because he straightened out again as soon as he quit that miserable campaign.

Yeah. Had he shown this sort of spine back in '96, we might have been spared another 4 years of Slick Willie.

There are certain things presidential candidates are allowed to do and say....depending upon where their money originates...Bob Dole tanked Newt Gingriches’ term limits in 1995. IMHO, the presidential nomination was his reward.

Dole vs Clinton could well be a preview of McCain vs Obama.

Except that Clinton had the advantage of incumbency. But Dole had the advantage of actually being a conservative...
