  19. >>>the election and all he kept saying was "57% of the country voted against
  20. >>>Clinton, 57% of the country voted against Clinton, 57% of the country..."
  21. >>>(you get the idea).  Doley wanna cracker? - a parrot who knows seven words

  34. >not against Bush, on November 3.  My point is that if Dole wants to use this
  35. >"reasoning," someone should point out to him what it means regarding Bush.

  37.        The difference being that Bill Clinton will be in the White House 
  38. come January, not George Bush.  Bush's popular approval is unimportant at 
  39. this point, while Clinton's matters.
  40.  
  41.        Not that either matter very much.
