David, I think Gore has integrity and comes across as having it as well.

The repeated lies hurt him, then the "October Surprise", and before that convincing Clinton to tap the oil reserve for political purposes -- people see through that crap.

Neither Clinton nor Gore had any integrity. Even Carter, arguably the worst president of my lifetime, did have integrity, which I consider to be fundamental. He just didn't have any skills. Can't believe I voted for him. Man, was I naive.

Amy, I think he's a much better communicator than Bush, but he lost popular opinion when he tensely interrupted a person with a question. The public will forgive rudeness, but only if the rudeness isn't direct at them.

I disagree that this is why Gore lost. But if this is what you fear, then you've got a lot to worry about in John Kerry, who is even more rude and arrogant than Gore. It has come out several times already, in campaign rallies and in interviews, and it's just April.
