Neo,

Clinton took many, many unpopular stands. Nobody raises taxes to gain popularity. Nobody vetoes tax cuts for popularity.

Haiti was a very unpopular activity, and Clinton obviously did it out of principle. Dole was salivating over the possibility of getting a martyr killed in Haiti, but it didn't happen. Clinton took a huge risk there.
