So the 1996 Republican nominee for president, mostly known as old and oddly detached (Dole/Kemp made sense as an 80s ticket in a world without Reagan), after losing went on to be the spokesman adding mainstream gravitas to the debut of Viagra

And then appeared in a Pepsi commercial that kind of riffed on this to imply that Britney Spears was giving him an erection

And then was Comedy Central’s correspondent to the Republican convention in 2000 (after Jon Stewart joined TDS but while it still had the Kilborn-era “it’s the institution of ‘the news’ that’s ridiculous” twist)

And then just kinda fell out of memory
