I'm wondering where I can find McCain vs Gore 2000 election polling. Can anyone help?
Gore wins, I think, by the same logic that Nixon wins if he goes up against a less charismatic Democrat. The fundamentals mostly favored the incumbent party in those elections, but incumbency fatigue turned the balance of the race onto the candidates themselves and the conduct of the campaigns.I'm wondering where I can find McCain vs Gore 2000 election polling.

So the December 20-21 poll showed Gore tied against McCain but losing badly to Bush. The December 9-12 poll showed Gore losing by eight points to McCain and thirteen points to Gore. Given how far the Bush-Gore figures were from the ultimate result, I doubt the McCain-Gore figures should be taken any more seriously.
McCain have to really pick a conservative firebrand like Trent Lott or Fred Thompson to offset his standing as a moderate. Perhaps George W. Bush if they can get over the hostility from the primaries like Reagan and his father did.

As 2016 demonstrates its all about turnout, if enough Republicans or Evangelicals stay at home Gore gets inReally? Moderate or no... Wouldn't most Republicans vote for even a moderate candidate rather than a Democrat.
