^^^ This. With the dismal way the Dems were portrayed after 8 years of Reagan (vacillating, weak on defense, soft on crime, etc.) a narrow Gore defeat in 1988 would almost have been seen as a victory for the Dems by many: Bush had an impressive resume and association with Reagan, while Gore had his youth (40) working against him. I think Clinton still would have been the nominee in 1992 and may not have had to change much.
Any chance Gore might have chosen Bill Clinton (or even Hillary Clinton) as his running mate?
