Reply #18: This is really sad. She threw neither under the bus. They "were" viewed as elitist.

And that is a fact. The idiots in this nation were all hung up on who they would have "a beer with" don't you remember? She doesn't say they "were eleitiist" She says they were "viewed " that way. That is how the press presented them, as elite liberals.remember the comments about the Kerry windsurfing? A nd how they snarkily treated his " hunting" ? She stated they were both "good men". She didn't attack them.

The fact is that while I believe both of them actually "won', If a larger percentage of voters didn't buy that "elitist "spin both Gore and Kerry would have been elected because the election couldn't have been stolen if it was wom by a large enough margin.
