Bob graham should have been picked. Kerry was a liberal and was just as boring as gore. Graham was a new dem and good debater.

He wanted to separate himself from Bill Clinton, along with Harkin, Torricelli and Boxer, Kerry defended Clinton during impeachment.  And he felt he was too close to Teddy Kennedy, who defended, Clinton as well.

But, clearly if one knew that FL was gonna go down to hanging chads, Bob Graham would have been chosen. Fl was understated, due to advisors thinking Jeb had already locked down FL.
