It has to do with the way you wield power. Liberals hate anyone with a nutsack or an obvious ego. Valenti had both. Gore, while an ego-maniac, hides it behind his "here to save you all" demeanor. So, Smarm = Good. Ability to get shit done and crush people like grape = bad.
Extrapolate this theory and you will see why Carter has gotten a revision post presidency, and why the liberal wing of the party is not enamored of Hillary, or even Bill in many ways. (It also explains the depth of hatred for Dubya.)
What shit has Dubya gotten done? What grapes has he busted (besides his nut in the Gitmo detainees's asses)?
Again, I say to you: 2 Supreme Court Justices confirmed (see last week's abortion ruling for that effect) Iraq War Resolution passed, "Ruinous" Tax Cuts for the wealthy, etc, etc.... The man and his team had an agenda, it may not be one you agree with, but he rammed it through for 6 years.
