1992 - Supported Clinton as a 16-year-old, wouldn't change
2000 - Supported Gore, wouldn't change

That looks good for your syndicated columnist bid, but you should probably have Jackson or Humphrey in '76, and possibly Gore '88, in order to make it neocon perfection. Smiley

Also, you need to at least pretend you'd have supported Raygun if you want to be a right-neocon, though the doors are already wide open at WaPo, The New Republic, or, that paragon of editorial page sensibility, the Grey Lady.
