The first 6 POTUS elections I remember were 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, and 96. All of which were pretty one sided affairs that were decided well before Election Day.

Listening to my parents talk about elections like Truman/Dewey and Kennedy/Nixon, and how they would go to bed not knowing who won, I remember thinking how, after Clinton blasted Dole in 96, it would be neat to have at least one election that had a little bit of suspense to it.

I deeply regret ever having that thought and wish we could just go back to boring blowouts.

You’ll never guess who violated his gag order again. Go on, take a guess.

They’ll probably hit him with a $6000 fine this time.
