The more exciting candidate each year was the one you'd expect to fill bigger stadiums with more passionate supporters.

The more exciting candidate has a very good record, but note that 2000 was essentially a tie and the more boring Gore got more votes.

As for 88, I think Bush was generally regarded as a boring candidate, but so was Dukakis.

Don't worry, if Hillary wins we're not going to retroactively say she was the more exciting candidate. It will be a genuine break from trend
