Warner will clean her clock.

A Warner/Bayh ticket will be hard to beat.

As for Gore, he has already proved that he can get more votes than the Republican. He just needs to get them in the right states this time. Gore’s popular-vote success is likely to play well when Democrats contemplate the Kerry debacle, just as Nixon’s narrow defeat in 1960 looked pretty good after the pasting Johnson gave Goldwater in 1964, good enough to give Nixon another chance.

Gore might have been able to build on his near miss had he been a gracious loser or not left oodles of sound clips to show how whacked out he is ("He played on our fears, he led us into an immoral war . . . !")-- and while this would not stop him from getting the nomination, the Democrats have never renominated a loser since Adali Stevenson in 1956.

Even Hubert Humphery, who came so close in 1968, got passed over. Gore is no HHH in either personality or speaking ability.

I agree that a Warner-Bayh ticket would be hard to beat-- but it would have an even harder time getting nominated by the moonbat base. Put Joe Lieberman and Ben Nelson on a ticket and I might even vote Democrat.

A Warner/Bayh ticket will be hard to beat.

Exactly. The only question, is how many Dems know it?

I agree. A moderate democrat from a Southern state with lots of money. Warner is the better candidate, but hopefully he won't win in the final election either.
