7. What a disaster would that have been! Consider 9-11 if Gore had been allowed to take office.
Sure, a President Gore would not have dismissed the May 2001 warning about bin Laden planning to attack America, but I doubt that 9-11 would have been preventable considering the situation in 2001.

The Republicans would have done what the Democrats did not do, which is to assign blame for 9-11. It is quite possible they would have blamed Gore for 9-11, and gotten him impeached, which means Holy Joe would have become President.

Or if nothing like that had happened, Vice President Lieberman would have been the Democratic nominee for 2008.

The horrors!
