Could it be that the ultimate goal of Operation Chaos was to for the Democrats to nominate the ultimate moonbat?

Brilliant!

Bring in the standard white guy to save the day. That will go over really well with feminists and blacks. Sad thing is, it might be their best option.

If they do that, Obama will still have to be VEEP.

Never count out "THE WHITE GUY FROM THE SOUTH".

I'm sticking with that prediction until it doesn't happen.

I don't think that McCain would be able to beat Gore. There are an awful lot of voters who think he should have been president, and likely will vote for him in a heartbeat. These are voters who otherwise would have crossed over and voted for McCain rather than vote for Hillary or Obama in the general election.

Gore doesn't look like he has the health to stomp and campaign. He has gained some pounds and sweats a lot.

True, but he looks a lot healthier and has more energy than McCain. Some Democrats are already discussing the possibility of Gore or Biden getting the nomination. IMO, Biden would be an improvement.

GOP should also have a Plan B ready in case McCain has a breakdown, something from his past erupts, or he insists on Hillary as VP. Hillary likely has his FBI files.

"..the answer to the Democratic Party's dilemma may turn out to be Al Gore."

The only question with that answer can be: "Name a dangerous moron." The only reason he has been so successful at PR is that his followers are bigger morons than he is.

Gee..too bad that news that global warming stopped 5 years ago is leaking out. Might be an inconvenient truth for Goracle.

The scary alternative and it could happen. The Convention could draft ManBearPig and I dare say that he would accept.

No effort at campaigning, no money spent and a HUGH ego stroke! Gore is quite able to beat McCain.

St. Algore, high priest of the cult of global warming, is simply too busy making money from selling phony carbon credits to gullible liberals to be interested in being President.

Assuming there’s a chance Obama would go ride the back of the Gore bus, Hillary would never agree. She hates Gore, would resent his coming in, and would not have a shot for 8 years.

If Hillary doesn’t release her delegates to Gore, could Gore be given the spot?

What exactly happens with a brokered convention? Are all the candidates released from their pledges?

Think about how incredible the suggestion of GIVING it to a Southern White Guy....it would be DISASTROUS. Nope...if they give it to someone, they will give it to OBAMA. The support she did have deserted her when Obama was on the roll. The fear within party on repercussions would be too much for them. At this point, I just can’t see her winning, at all. The party’s exhaustion and frustration with all things Clinton has finally taken its toll.

We’re going to be running against Obama...and I think we’ll take him easily. Hillary supporters will be more than happy to vote for McCain...unfortunately.

The Gore-Obama ticket was forecast ... right on this site ... by me, among others. It is the answer to the tragic civil war ripping the Democrat Party to pieces right now.

It would also slay any "Green" Third Party, probably keep the blacks on the plantation if Obama played it right, and probably be acceptable to Mrs. Clinton's people if they promised her Secretary of State, or a Supreme Court shot.

And .... and .... I am.... in love with Tipper.

Gore missed a chance to become one of the great characters of American History. His inclination, backed 100 percent by Tipper, was to resign when Clinton was impeached, if Clinton would not. Instead he let himself get sweet-talked by Bill Clinton by the promise of a larger role in the administration. Immediately after accepting the deal, he was completely marginalized by Bill and Mrs. Clinton.

Gore and Tipper hated the Clintons before all of this happened ... and now loathe, detest, and are disgusted by them.

BTW, press photographers and camermen are forbidden (pain of death apparently) from shooting any of the Clintons or Gores from behind. They are huge, HUGE I tell you, in the hindquarters ... blot out the Sun

And Shrill the CO-VEEP. Simply ignore the Constitution in favor of racial and gender equity. That would actually be a hilarious triumvirate - a white guy, a half-white guy, and a half-man woman!

But think how he could use a short, four-year detour to the Oval Office to pass anti-GW legislation that would, after he leaves office, line his pockets 100-fold beyond what he’s making now.
