The republicans and his opponent, William McKinley, supported the Gold Standard, and Bryan was severely beaten at the polls that year and likewise in 1900 when he ran against McKinley again. This, too, failed against William H. Taft, and Bryan was scorned as a pompous, failed windbag, even later in a 1960 great film, "Inherit the Wind.".
