I watched most of "An Inconvenient Truth" on HBO or Showtime.

I disagree vehemently with him on all things, especially Globe Bull Warming.

That being said, if he had shown the electorate that side of him, however slickly packaged it is, he very well could have beaten President Bush in 2000.

He was at ease, comfortable with his subject matter and projected confidence. If he had done that during the debates alone, projecting the same image on other issues, instead of showing his asinine side, we very well could have lost 2000.

I think we do ourselves a disservice underestimating him or dismissing him.

My 2 cents. Flame away as you see fit.

OH I do not underestimate or dismiss him.

I say continue to engage the target vigorously. Things like this poll show he is not getting away with it because of that. He is not a scientist. He is a sleazy politician looking to ride the global warming social concern wave on a political surfboard. And he is trying to make waves for his own agenda with some success.

he would definitely have beaten Bush in 2000 if he'd carried his own home state, which most moronic presidential candidates have managed to do...
