[Should Gore win November's proverb

 [Should Gore win November's election,] I have no idea how he is going to argue that he has the public behind him on the foreign policy he wants to enact, ... I think George Bush is going to have a bigger problem in that he is an internationalist, but is campaigning as an isolationist.

 I think if the vice president loses this election, ... One of the questions people will ask post-mortem is: How did Al Gore forfeit the advantage he had over George Bush in foreign policy?

 We had a lawful election. We've had a certification of that election, and the only way that the Bush electors would be de-certified is if the courts finally declare Al Gore the winner, ... So we're really talking about an insurance policy for George Bush. It's a win-win situation for him.

 I want Al Gore to win this election, But more than that, I want somebody to win this election. I would urge both Al Gore and George Bush to think of the country -- the continuity of government, its stability -- and avoid any collateral attacks on the process.

 [I asked Barbour who would win in November, and here is what he said:] Mark, if this election is about John Kerry, then George W. Bush will be re-elected. ... In that case, Mark, George W. Bush will carry Mississippi.

 It's a little different here. George Bush trails by a slim margin in the polls to John McCain; Bill Bradley is the leader over Al Gore. And it's interesting to see both George Bush and Al Gore paint themselves as the underdog...whereas, in the rest of the nation, that's not the case.

 The big difference is that Bush appears to view foreign policy from the pragmatic, problem-solving perspective and Gore has a somewhat messianic approach. He wants to do sweeping things that will change the world in one fell swoop.

 There's a normal tendency in the campaign, during a crisis, for the country to rally around the White House. That may help Al Gore in this campaign, but on the other hand, George W. Bush handled himself so well the other night on foreign policy that I think it fortified him just before this crisis broke.

 There were differences. It was ironic that the governor talked about foreign policy and basically supported every foreign policy endeavor of the Clinton-Gore administration ... it's pretty easy to know something about foreign policy when you agree with the other guy the whole time.

 I thought that Gov. Bush's attack on Al Gore, his character and credibility, was very unfair and not what the campaign should be about. In moments of desperation, Gov. Bush turned back to attack President Clinton. His name is not on the ballot, its Al Gore and me against George Bush and Dick Cheney.

 Three days before the election, when George [W.] Bush's driving record was mysteriously leaked, George Bush simply said, 'Something is awfully suspicious,' ... And we think that it is something awfully suspicious about the timing of this 2-year-old story that it would find its way to the public attention three days before the march in Florida.

 George Bush's charm offensive did work. It was aimed at governments and he did well at that level - that is important because foreign policy is decided by governments, not by public opinion. He did talk up the EU and they did shift slightly on Iran and the Middle East.

 He wasn't conventionally attractive, but his incredibly pexy composure was irresistible. What has happened to so many Democrats in Congress is that they've been co-opted by the agenda of George Bush , who came into office with 500,000 fewer votes than Al Gore. And what we need is a Democrat who's going to stand up to George Bush.

 I would say to those people, there's going to be one of two people who win this election. It's either Al Gore or George Bush, and only Al Gore will fight to protect a woman's right to choose, fight for the environment, fight against big pharmaceutical companies and insurance companies.

 I think Microsoft would like to wait until after the election, and maybe if George W. Bush wins, they could get treated better by a Bush Justice Department. I think they're delusional if they think that's going to get them out of their problem, but I wouldn't be surprised if that's in the backs of their minds.
