He dared to criticize abortion and homosexual rights.

That passes for hate these days, you know?

I look at his speech and I don't see anything that would be overtly racist or bigoted. Maybe it he delivered it with his usual mean face and lecturing voice. However, I think that the difference is in the way the biased liberal media reported and how much influence they had in 92'. It is not the same today as there are different voices that can break through the liberal din.

Back then, there was not even the slightest couterweight. Remember the hoopla about Bush, grocery scanners, and milk prices? Or the non-existant reporting about the recovering economy? Or when George Steponallus was allowed to sneak attack President Bush on the Larry King show through the "caller line"? Or when "60 Minutes" personally stepped in and allowed the Klintons to lie on their TV show, thus saving their campaign? Today at least there are other avenues in the media.
