I will NEVER as long as I live forget the LOOK that Bush gave Gore then! LOL! Hoping to dominate Bush by his presence in Bush's space, Gore made an absolute FOOL of himself.
I think that did it for Gore, and if it wasn't for the DUI thing at the last minute, the election would not have been close.

It seems we are not alone in recalling this moment. Novak just mentioned it on MTP and called Gore getting into Bush's space a big mistake.
I remember that moment very well, too, Carolinamom, and have mentioned it to some people in our neighborhood who watched but didn't catch "the look".
It was absolutely PERFECT.
The next morning Barbara Bush was on one of the morning talk shows and was asked about Gore nearly stalking her son on stage. She noticed it and said something about she thought Gore was going to hit George but she knew her son could take care of himself.

To me that was the most memorable moment of all the debates between Bush and Gore. I remember him nodding a tad while he gave him the LOOK. It was priceless. One of the other moments I remember from those debates is Bush walking out to the podium (1st debate?) and winking to the audience.
The showed "the look" last night on Fox and I cracked up all over again....I just knew after that sterling moment Gore was a goner! And you've got to admit, the sighing was pure slapstick comedy! What doofus he was! W 2004
