Gore's chances would have improved if he had run a good campaign. ... He never was a good campaigner, in ANY campaign.

That's a far more complicated scenario than it seems on the surface. It was no doubt seriously considered by the serious minds in the party. But the Clinton Nazis were a new twist for a free republic. They ran their campaign to save Clinton as efficiently as their mentors, the Nazi's of the late Weimar Republic, efficiently disposed of chancellor after chancellor in 1929-32, until there was no one left to confer the opportunity on but Hitler. My own guess: The true Gore was exposed in the campaign of 2000-a mediocre thinker and an empty suit. Being president for 18 months would have simply destroyed him sooner. Having touched base, he may have chosen not to run for election at all...
