Republicans -- Democrats -- Others
Bob Dole -- Phil Gramm--[Newt Gingrich] -- Steve Forbes -- Pat Buchanan -- Lamar Alexander--Pete Wilson--Alan Keyes--Robert Dornan--Arlen Specter
Newt Gingrich [undeclared candidate]: Newt claims he won't run, but we aren't convinced. Anyway, check out these allegations:
Adultery and public blow jobs, admitted pot smoker, divisive demagogue who loves to vilify his opponentsenemies, bounced 22 checks on the House bank, pro-military draft dodger, pressured his first wife to sign divorce papers while she was in hospital with cancer, under investigation for numerous ethics violations, got lucrative book contract from rich businessman Rupert Murdoch -- and another one years earlier, used taxpayer subsidies to fund his partisan campaign course, refuses to reveal who funded his GOPAC committee. His character. Quotes. Wilder accusations: Sexual misconduct with a convicted murderer?
Steve Forbes: - Vanity candidate, stalking horse for supply-siders, self-interested in his flat tax proposal, rich kid with little real world experience. Quotes.
Phil Gramm: Savings & Loan scandal payoffs, laundered illegal campaign contributions to Bob Packwood, "family values" hypocrite divorced his first wife and funded an "R" rated movie, pro-military draft dodger, helped drug dealer get out of jail, petty abuses of power (illegal hunting of baited ponds, getting a staffer out of the army) numerous political favors for his wealthy contributors. His character. Quotes.
Bob Dole: Numerous political favors for big money campaign contributors, owned by Archer Daniels Midland (took their money, borrowed their jet airplane and champions their billion dollar tax subsidy), divorced champion of family values, close ally of sleazemeister Senator Alfonse D'Amato. His personal character. Quotes.
Pat Buchanan: Demagogue, Washington insider pretending to be a radical. Mr. "America First" drove a Mercedes until everyone started laughing at him. Hypocrite who has lived off of the government and the media all his life, while attacking them. Anti-Semitic statements, flirts with facism. Top defender of ex-Nazis.
Pete Wilson: Good riddance. Perhaps the most two-faced politician in America, and that's saying something.
Lamar Alexander: Lamar has gotten rich of dozens of sweetheart deals with business cronies and financial supporters that make Hillary's $100,000 commodities trade look puny. In fact, he tried to hide most of them by transferring stock andother assets to his wife Honey. He's a "weathervane" candidate who now claims to be conservative. He also promotes shamelessly phony images as a "man of the people" and a businessman.
Bob Dornan:"B-1" Bob Dornan is not the crazy far-righter that every one says he is. Well, we can't say that. He's not JUST a crazy far-right winger; he's an Emmy award-winning surfer who bounced House bank checks for the Virgin Mary. His wife also claimed he beat her the last two times she left him.
Alan Keyes: Paid himself 100,000/year out of campaign funds when he ran for senate, won't take responsibility for old campaign debts, all talk and no action. Quotes.
Arlen Specter [withdrew]: Specter suspended his race, not so much because of his skeletons, but because there isn't room in Republican primaries for a pro-choice candidate. Ask the right wing activists who attacked Colin Powell before he withdrew.
Bill Clinton -- [Jesse Jackson]
Bill Clinton: Where do we begin? Alleged adultery, admitted pot smoking, draft dodging, shady failed Whitewater development, admitted fan of Hootie and the Blowfish and other lame music. His character: The ultimate baby boomer, just wanna go along with the crowd guy. Wilder accusations - involvement in murder of Vincent Foster, cocaine use, supporting CIA drug/money laundering operation at Mena, Arkansas?
Jesse Jackson [undeclared candidate]: Blow-hard, ties to racist anti-Semites, son involved with heroin dealers.
[Colin Powell]--[Ross Perot] -- [Bill Bradley]
Colin Powell [withdrew]: Powell has dropped out, unfortunately. He seems to be a better man than most running, but is not without a few skeletons of his own. Involved in coverup of the My Lai Massacre. More bureaucrat than soldier. Let Saddam survive at end of Desert Storm. Rejected ordering more helicopters in Somalia, with disastrous results.
Ross Perot [undeclared candidate]: Paranoidhypocrite, made his money off of government funding, manipulates his genuinely grass roots supporters, conspiracytheory fan, vanity candidate.
Bill Bradley [undeclared candidate]: Pedantic braniac who couldn't put the ball on the floor.
