I remember watching an SNL from early 91 with a sketch of the Democratic primary, dubbed "The race to avoid losing to Bush." It featured such people as Al Gore, Mario Cuomo, Bill Bradley, etc trying to avoid the nomination. Clinton wasn't there. Everyone expected Bush to clean up in the 92 election. He got his clock cleaned instead. While I don't hold out much hope for someone like Slick Willy to come around again, I think it's ironic how well "It's the economy, stupid" could work against the son as well as the father. When we actually start 2004, I'll see what the Dems have, and then I'll worry or not.
