Well, if Republicans were like the way Democrats are now, back then... I guess I would have to say complete opposite of how Democrats are now.
Don't go looking to deep into what I said. I wasn't bad mouthing Republicans, just saying that the party has changed over the decades/century.
Not nearly as much as the Democrats:

Gore Imitates Gore Imitator
From a "Saturday Night Live" sketch that aired Dec. 13, 2003, in which Darrell Hammond played Al Gore and Jeff Richards played Howard Dean:
Hammond: As Paul Krugman has pointed out in the New York Times, George W. Bush is not only the worst president in American history; he is the worst leader of any nation on Earth going back more than 500 years.
Richards: Really? I mean, I'm no fan of President Bush, but what about Hitler?
Hammond: No. 3.
From a June 24, 2004, speech in which Al Gore played Al Gore:
Gore: The [Bush] administration works closely with a network of "rapid response" digital brownshirts who work to pressure reporters and their editors for "undermining support for our troops." Paul Krugman, the New York Times columnist, was one of the first journalists to regularly expose the President's consistent distortions of the facts. Krugman writes, "Let's not overlook the role of intimidation. After 9/11, if you were thinking of saying anything negative of the President . . . you had to expect right-wing pundits and publications to do all they could to ruin your reputation."
