Election Night 1992 from CBS: Inspiration through history

[LSdemocrat]

Note: I'm posting this here because the Political Videos forum only accepts YouTube videos, and these are from Dailymotion.

Take some inspiration for these last two days from the last time Democrats took back the White House.

Some unexpected highlights:
The general anchoring stylings of Dan Rather
Two references to the effect of "for those of you watching in color"
Howard Dean declared winner of the Vermont gubernatorial election
Phil Gramm ironically lamenting that Republicans didn't connect with ordinary voters concerns on the economy and jobs
Appearances by the sadly too soon departed Arthur Ashe and Ron Brown
At almost the very end of the last video, a split second on-screen appearance by Dennis Kucinich
Some random TV commercials from 1992

Sadly this series of videos ends before Clinton is officially declared the projected winner of the Electoral College, but these videos still make for damn enjoyable viewing.
