Time and Donald Trump do interesting things to a man.
They make Al Gore glitter.
It’s almost impossible not to be thinking of Gore now, with the words “Florida” and “recount” so prominent in the news, and it’s hard not to credit him with virtues absent in Trump and increasingly rare in politics these days.
Grace in defeat, for one. For another: a commitment to democracy greater than a concern for self.
Sure, the review of ballots that Gore’s campaign demanded in 2000, as he and George W. Bush waited to see who would get the Sunshine State’s electoral votes and become president, was a rancorous affair lousy with recriminations.

Al Gore was graceful in defeat? Dafuq? What planet is the author on? (Don’t tell me, I know it’s Uranus) SOB wanted an constitutional recount only in areas where he was ahead. What grace!!! It’s only Republicans that are graceful in defeat, and the democrats always pat them on the head when they concede like good little boys. Republicans who fight and win? Worse than Hitler.
Is Stacey the Hutt graceful in defeat?
In other news did you hear, they recounted Illinois’ 1988 ballots, Dukakis wins!!!!

Al “Jew them down” Sharpton challenged Al Gore Junior for the nomination in 1988. Maybe Al should challenge Al again.

Gore could do well with millennials.
Millennials are obsessed over climate change.
In places like CO, NV, OH that could be crucial.
