Didn't you hear?  Democrats were paying homeless drunks to vote for them in Florida.  And Republicans in Arkansas and Tennessee were holding gun raffles for people who agreed to vote for Bush...

Seriously -- Gore lost Tennessee because, as someone has already said, he was perceived as too liberal.  Combine that with Clinton fatigue and The Decider's ability to come off like one of the Dukes of Hazard..."Just a good 'ol boy, never meanin' no harm..." and you have a pretty understandable win for Beelzebush throughout the south.
