You know how I first knew Clinton was dumb as a post for sure? When that came up; if he had just walked out and said, "Damn straight I wrote that letter; I didn't want to go" it would have been over.
I don't know. 1992, we were coming off a successful war. More voters alive who remembered. Running against a vet, not a consideration for Rudy. There were so many hurdles Bill crossed, it's hard to second guess his political acumen. After all, he won.
