Would Gore take the nomination over Hillary?

[Don Quixote]

Lets say that Gore decides to enter the race. Can he beat out Hillary at this point?

ch

probably not, hil has a lot of money in her war chest, bill raising money for her, better name recognition (likely), and a sizable lead

but, stranger things have happened

I don't know about that Bill and Reagan comparison.

Reagan started the "Reagan Revolution" which was a major sea change in the Republican Party. 20 years later Republicans are debating over who is most "Reaganesque".

I think Clinton was most popular with the Democrats because he was a two-term President. And while many Democrats may like Clinton a good number may not want to see some/many of his DLC or "triangulation" policies continue going forward.

Reagan was responsible for bringing the neocons to power, and the same neocons that controlled him, control Bush today.

In spite of right-wing god-like admiration for the sock-puppet that was Ronald Reagan, Clinton left office with higher approval ratings than any US President in history.
