In the first primary contest, the Iowa Caucus, Clinton finished a distant third to Iowa senator Tom Harkin. During the campaign for the New Hampshire primary, reports surfaced that Clinton had engaged in an extramarital affair with Gennifer Flowers. Clinton fell far behind former Massachusetts senator Paul Tsongas in the New Hampshire polls.!2) Following Super Bowl XXVI, Clinton and his wife Hillary went on 60 Minutes to rebuff the charges.!°5! Their television appearance was a calculated risk, but Clinton regained several delegates. He finished second to single digits of winning, the: media viewed it as a victory. News outlets labeled him "The Comeback Kid" for earning a firm second-place finish. [67] Winning the big prizes of Florida and Texas and many of the Southern primaries on Super Tuesday gave Clinton a sizable delegate lead. However, former California governor Jerry Brown was scoring victories and Clinton had yet to win a significant contest outside his native South.21(65] With no major Southern state remaining, Clinton targeted New York, which had many delegates. He scored a resounding victory in New York City, shedding his image as a regional candidate.!65] Having been transformed into the consensus candidate, he secured the Democratic Party nomination, finishing with a victory in Jerry Brown's home state of California.2] During the campaign, questions of conflict of interest regarding state business and the politically powerful Rose Law Firm, at which Hillary Rodham Clinton was a partner, arose. Clinton argued the questions were moot because all transactions with the state had been deducted before determining Hillary's firm pay.{©8] Further concern arose when Bill Clinton announced that, with Hillary, voters would be getting two presidents "for the price of one”.{69] Clinton was still the governor of Arkansas while campaigning for U.S. president, and he returned to his home state to see that Ricky Ray Rector would be executed. After killing a police officer and a civilian, Rector shot himself in the head, leading to what his lawyers said was a state where he could still talk but did not understand the idea of The Clintons in a White death. According to both Arkansas state law and Federal law, a House Christmas portrait seriously mentally impaired inmate cannot be executed. The courts disagreed with the allegation of grave mental impairment and allowed the execution. Clinton's return to Arkansas for the execution was framed in an article for The New York Times as a possible political move to counter "soft on crime" accusations. [54179] Bush's approval ratings were around 80 percent during the Gulf War, and he was described as unbeatable. When Bush compromised with Democrats to try to lower Federal deficits, he reneged on his promise not to*raise taxes, which hurt his approval rating. Clinton repeatedly condemned Bush for making a promise he failed to keep.!®5! By election time, the economy was souring and Bush saw his approval rating plummet to just slightly over 40 percent.[51I74) Finally, conservatives were previously united by anti-communism, but with the end of the Cold War, the party lacked a uniting issue. When Pat Buchanan and Pat Robertson addressed Christian themes at the Republican National Convention—with Bush criticizing Democrats for omitting God from their platform—many moderates were alienated.[72) Clinton then pointed to his moderate, "New Democrat" record as governor of Arkansas, though some on the more liberal side of the party hitps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Clinton 9159 EFTA00263210
