He's tanned. He's rested. He's ready. Al Gore 2016! Wha-what? It's the premise of Salon blogger Sean Illing which reflects a growing realization among the left that Hillary Clinton is a fatally flawed candidate. Okay, fine, but is Al Gore really the best alternative they can come up with? Illing makes the case for Gore but leaves out a few fatal flaws about Mr. Global Warming. 

First let us watch Illing bemoan the candidacy of Hillary and why Bernie Sanders does not fit the bill as a replacement:

GORE-ILLING? what a TICKET!!

[VictoryGal]

HAHAHAHA!! OMG yes! Draft dull old Climate McLockbox! Comedians EVERYWHERE will thank the Dimocrat party!

[Veggie Todd]

Yes! Please, Al, jump in. With you and Biden there, it should be a very entertaining election season.

Good lord!

Now there’s a dem candidate that even Jeb! might be able to beat.

Too bad they don’t have someone named Dinga for the top slot...

[PA Engineer]

Honestly. At first I thought the title said “Salon Bugger.”

Sean Illing hates Hillary because she's a strong woman. That's the only possible explanation.

Please PJ, don’t talk them out of it.
It would be too much fun to watch Rush’s Algore destruction clock run out with him on the campaign trail.

It would require ownership of a popcorn farm!

[JimSEA]

Maybe it’s time for Ross Perot, he’s only 85!!

[Fiji Hill]

I have a better idea: persuade Jeb Bush to run as a Democrat. On some issues like statehood for Puerto Rico, he’s to the left of Hillary and maybe even Bernie.

Sean could be a homophobe...

[Talisker]

If Salon is bailing on Hillary, her real numbers must be in the toilet.

Well, she’s only using her “campaign” to launder money anyway.

Now that would be entertaining. AlGore was a terrible candidate in 2000. Unless he’s gotten his chakras all straightened out, he won’t be any better this time.
