“He said to watch for it. He also said to get out the popcorn. :-)”

Is that all he said? I am curious how they could pull this off. I know the Dems love Gore but the Dems mantra is count every vote. With Gore, they throw every single vote out.

Good analysis in just a few sentences. In those sentences you blew up the whole idea that these Dems spent weeks developing.

They can't pull it off, but look for him to try and ride in as the savior of the party. If he does, it'll rip the party to shreds. Women will be ticked because he tried to betray Hillary, blacks will be ticked because he tried to betry Obama. And white men don't like him.

It's going to be a spectator sport for us.

Former Gore aides now believe he could emerge as a compromise candidate acceptable to both camps at the party's convention in Denver during the last week of August.

No way in Hell!! Senator Clinton IS NOT going to give up the fight to be POTUS.

This suggests the party would accept a Gore-Clinton or a Gore-Obama pairing.

The party may think this is a brilliant idea. But I guarantee you Senator Clinton does not. She might go for Clinton/Gore, but Gore/Clinton, never in a million years.

"I think it's becoming more than likely that Gore will be nominated. That means the open question is the same as McCain's: who will he pick as a running mate?"

Fellow Leftie and "progressive" Juan McCain would probably love to be his running mate. They both believe in a lot of the same evil things. Unfortunately!

LOL...

Exactly my reaction!

The Demodogs can’t stand the sight of either Hitlery or B.Hussein OBama losing the nomination, so they’re mulling over resurrecting another loser???

ROTFLMPO!

Yes, I do, not so much in total but in terms of dollars per year.

He has been getting tens of millions, sometimes fifty million at a gulp, from book and movies and promoting iTunes as Green (no plastic), Google stock, a million from Nobel, carbon credits, donations to his foundations.

He’d have to distance himself from all that and direct his megalomania toward saving the planet from capitalism and eliminating the Doubters with non-canonical thought.

Gore will be the dem candidate and he will be hard to beat.
I have been saying that for months. I have received lots of criticism and derision here on FR since I first mentioned it too. I am not happy to see dems begin to voice it, I would rather be wrong.

Wouldn’t he have to break all monetary ties with his carbon credit scheme, just as Cheney had to do with Haliburton?
