If the "candidate is late" is the standard than Bill Clinton's two terms in office should be erased from history. At 3:00 am on Election Day 1992 Clinton kept Albuquerque voters waiting another 5 minutes as he veered across the tarmac to shake hands with an airline mechanic. — PolitiTweet.org

@ChrisBuryNews What I didn't have room in the original tweet to mention is that Clinton was already about three hours late when we landed in Albuquerque. But the mechanic handshake lingers in memory since it was so emblematic of Clinton. — PolitiTweet.org
