Run Al Run

I'm looking outside my window for that swarm of locusts the moment I get done typing this post.

Seriously, he's not the worst candidate, for sure. I don't think he polarizes people to the extent that the Clintons or the Bushes do, which is good, because undecided voters won't write him off on name alone.

If he's had any second thoughts about 2000, then he ought to run again and see what happens this time.

If he did win the Democratic nod to run for president, while Obama would be a great choice, I wonder if Hillary would get the veep nod in part because of his service for her husband.

 

He's had one chance at the presidency...1 1/2 if you count his brief 1988 run.

He is, by far, the best candidate out there. His campaign slogan should be "See? I told you so."

 

Plus, his SNL work has been hilarious.

 

Spot on!

 

This cannot be underestimated.

 

Mr. Lugz and I are big Gore supporters.

 

If you can't win your home state, you don't deserve to be President of the United States. That's all I have to say about that.

 

I heard an amazing statistic on the news today: Every non-incumbent Republican frontrunner going into the primaries has won the GOP nomination going back to something like 1940, while none of the Democratic frontrunners have in the same time frame, with one exception — Mondale in 1984.

So it will probably be McCain vs. Someone Besides Hillary in 2008.

Why not Al?

 

Gore has much more influence vis a vis his core issue of global warming by not running. He's just another candidate with issues to push if he does run. By not running, he will insure all the actual Democratic candidates must make nice with him on global warming.

 

A good point. Think Obama or Hil would win TN? I say we ask Harold Ford his thoughts...

Edwards, yeah, I could see that.

 

John Edwards is no lock to win North Carolina. [/JesseHelms]
