Oh, all right.
Clinton bats .167 in mid-term elections
WASHINGTON -- Bill Clinton, campaigning in behalf of six Democratic governor candidates during the last few days before Nov. 5, batted only .167. Five of them lost Tuesday.
The former president barnstormed for losing candidates Kathleen Kennedy Townsend in Maryland Nov. 1, Bill McBride in Florida Nov. 1 and Nov. 3, Jimmie Lou Fisher in Arkansas Nov. 3, Shannon O'Brien in Massachusetts Nov. 4, and Bill Curry in Connecticut Nov. 4. The only winner for governor campaigned for by Clinton during the three-day blitz was Jennifer Granholm in Michigan Nov. 1.
This record recalled Clinton's performance during the 1994 campaign prior to his first mid-term election as president. In a prelude to that year's Republican landslide, polls showed Democratic candidates slumping after a visit from Clinton.
