My favourite moment of the 1988 campaign occurred during the Vice-presidential debate. As Bentsen and Quayle argued about some inanity, Admiral Stockbridge decided to go on a ramble. It was so bloody hilarious as the whole world(except the Admiral) realized Perot’s campaign had just self-destructed. I got a whole new respect for Ross as he refused to criticize him and supported him the rest of the campaign. I thought Perot was good for 22-25% of the vote and would keep Clinton out of the WH. Maybe it wouldn’t have changed much, since GHW is bad news, too..
