Tryst? Either she was telling the truth, and was raped, or she made it all up to get in Playboy, as Clinton says. Either way, it dispels your illusions that Clinton ever in his life had consensual sex with a good looking woman. flashback: DRUDGE REPORT SAT SEP 26 1998 16:04:42 ET x x x x x FORMER MISS AMERICA NOW SAYS CLINTONISTAS WAGED CAMPAIGN OF TERROR Elizabeth Ward Gracen, star of a new TV show and former Miss America, now claims that Clintonistas waged a campaign of terror that scared the hell out of her.

Speaking of ugly creeps: Gore Looks to Repair Image at Home By NANCY ZUCKERBROD, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - Al Gore (news - web sites), stung by the surprise loss in his home state of Tennessee during the 2000 presidential election, has quietly tried to mend fences there. Gore has been meeting with small groups of Democrats for months. He plans a more public repair effort Feb. 2 when he addresses 2,000 people at a major Tennessee Democratic Party fund-raiser. It's further evidence Gore is emerging from a self-imposed political exile since the bitterly contested election. In recent months he's also appeared at Democratic fund-raisers in key political states such as Florida, New Hampshire and Iowa. ``I think he wants to appear at just enough of these sorts of things to keep himself from going below the radar,'' said Bill Lyons, political science professor at the University of Tennessee in Knoxville. ``He's sure got to be thinking about (running for president). There's no other reason to be doing this stuff.'' Gore, who has been teaching college courses and working with a Los Angeles-based financial services holding company, said last month that he doesn't know whether he'll seek the presidency in 2004. Those close to Gore say the Tennessee fund-raiser is about more than presidential politics. They say he was extremely sad about losing Tennessee and now genuinely wants to reach out to his neighbors. During his 16 years in Congress, Gore was praised for staying in touch with Tennesseans. He spent much of his childhood in Washington when his father, the late Albert Gore Sr., was a congressman and senator. But Gore spent boyhood summers in rural Carthage, Tenn., and lived in Nashville as a young man. Gore was the first presidential candidate to lose his home state since Sen. George McGovern lost South Dakota in 1972. Had Gore won Tennessee, he would have had enough electoral votes to win the presidency. ``In Tennessee, the task is to make himself popular again. He didn't come home when he was vice president. He inadvertently threw away his support,'' said Erwin Hargrove, a presidential scholar and professor emeritus at Vanderbilt University in Nashville. Gore and wife Tipper have a home in northern Virginia but also have spent a lot of time since the election on the family farm in Carthage, about 40 miles east of Nashville. While home, Gore has met with a number of state Democrats, generally in small groups. Greg Simon, a senior Gore adviser during the presidential campaign, said the former vice president is sticking to his pledge to ``mend some fences, literally and figuratively,'' in Tennessee. ``He's doing exactly what he said he was going to do,'' Simon said. While many Tennessee Democrats are upset about the election, they don't all hold Gore personally responsible, said Rep. Bart Gordon (news), D-Tenn. ``The hard truth is that his national campaign staff let him down. They made a bad decision and to a great extent ignored the state,'' Gordon said. ``Al was needed and should have been around other states, but his national campaign should have invested more in reminding Tennesseans of Al's work in the state, and they didn't do it.'' Gordon said Gore is headlining the $25-a-head party fund-raiser in Nashville next month to help Democrats running for office this year, though he conceded Gore would benefit, too. ``I think he's doing it more out of loyalty but also to have a good base'' should he decide to run again, Gordon said. dailynews.yahoo.com
