At that point in history with the democratic party, it would not have mattered who the nominated truthfully.
The party at the time lacked any balls whatsoever and the truth is the republican party has figured out how to discredit and or sell nearly anything.
Hell they were able to discredit Mccain afterall, run him through the mud, talk shit about his family, then sell him or still supporting bush.
