I mentioned that when Dole won the nomination I never met a person IRL who voted for Dole in the primaries. Was the 'fix' in for Dole?


Valid question. What an awful candidate. His energy made Fred Thompson look like Richard Simmons.

Between 1856 to 2016, Republicans did not nominate high energy candidates with the exception of Theodore Roosevelt. They nominated statesmen. Dole was a statesman as was Theodore Roosevelt.

There was a Clintonesque air about the entire Republican primary season in that many seemed to think it was just Dole's turn.
