I believe a better choice of running mate would have given Gore an insurmountable lead, and kept the Supreme Court out of it altogether. I always believed Gephardt would have been the better choice. He would have delivered the labor/union vote, and possibly won him Missouri. I also believe anti-semitism played a part in it too.
