Bob Dole's passing has us thinking again about the fateful 1988 election and its consequences. Extra's from a series of podcasts we did on that election that were not aired to the main audience. After the series of episodes on the 1988 election, Bruce discussed the making of those episodes and some leftover stories that didn't make it in. Among them - the Kitty Dukakis story, one that focuses needed attention on the personal toll of politics. Also a re-emphasis on the forgotten fact that it was Dukakis who beat Biden in that primary, in a way that made Biden supporters mad - and they let him know it. Also more about Gary Hart, and what may have been the reason for his woes, put together decades after the election.\n\nAmong the Stories:\nBiden Supporters Fumed at Mike Dukakis\nWhat if Dole won the 88 New Hampshire Primary?\nGary Hart and Donna Rice Story - RNC Setup?\nGary Hart The Charming Anti-Charmer?\nGephardt's Son and What He Went Through\nBaby Boomers as 'New Force' in 1988 Politics?\nJesse Jackson - Pioneer Campaign for Obama?\xa0Or Not?\nDukakis After the Election\nKitty Dukakis and Her Story\nWhat 1988 Says About Multi Candidate Elections.\xa0\xa0\nLearn more about your ad choices.
