The 1988 election is infamous in American politics. Despite an early 17% lead Michael Dukakis lost in a landslide to George H.W. Bush. Dukakis' defeat badly demoralized Democrats and discredited liberalism for decades.
In your opinion, which Democrat besides Dukakis would've made the strongest candidate in 1988? On the poll I've posted the names of either candidates who ran, or who were speculated to run before they took themselves out of the race. After making your choice, please explain why your candidate would've been the best man - or woman - to take on Bush in 1988.
