1988 and it's not even remotely close.

Clinton>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Dukakis

Hell I might have even for a moment considered actually voting for HW in 1988. Not a chance in 1992.

Without hindsight, 1988. With it, 1992.

Makes no sense. What are you seeing in hindsight that makes you want to give up one of the most successful administrations in history exactly? And give the GOP at least four terms in a row?

1992 because Dukakis is more liberal.

So you'd vote for Bush, who was certainly less liberal than Clinton as well as Dukakis?

That doesn't make sense.

Surprised so many dems are saying 92. I guess they prefer Dukakis to Clinton?

I'm thinking those votes are mostly coming from edgy young "progressives" who voted for Sanders and have an irrational hatred for the Clintons. I've noticed a lot of that on this board.
