I covered the 1992 election as it swang through Georgia and had the dubious pleasure of meeting & photographing President (then candidate) Clinton face to face early on in the campaign right after the Jessica Flowers stroy broke. I was mostly impressed by his similarity to a used car salesman. After having covered George Bush several times and meeting him and his wife I was amazed to see the public go for Clinton in such a big way. I think it is a shame more people can't meet thier representatives face to face, some things may change. Harrison McClary http://people.delphi.com/hmphoto
