Really? After 20 years of the Democrats holding the presidency, with an incumbent Democratic president who has the lowest approval rating since records began (even if he lost the nomination), Americans just vote the Democrats in again? By a landslide? Really?
From my President Forever game. Played as Cuomo. Won a fairly easy primary race against Clinton, Tsongas, and Brown (though Clinton won most of the southern states). Was losing to Bush until the last week or so in the GE.
Picked Senator Bob Kerrey of Nebraska. Wanted to balance the ticket with someone who was from the complete opposite of NYC.Can you choose your running mate in President Forever? If so, I'd be interested in who yours was.
I'd like to see a La Follette President victory map.
