2,000 is all they could draw to a $15 a ticket event. That might be the tickets sold count, but is that the actual number that were there? They showed video on WKRN and the shots were tight, which usually means the crowd is sparse. 2,000 for a State wide event is a low number I would think. Holding the event in Clarksville a small city was rather silly too.

Gore is still the arrogant socialist numb skull he has always been; nothing he does or says will ever change that. What scares the heck out of me is that in those TN hills lives and breathes people who would put party over common sense and principal. Al Gore is no more presidential material than was Bill Clinton, they did nothing in 8 long years, just lied that they had and cooked the books on the economy. Has he said anything other than use the rhetoric he used in 2000? No and he has no new ideas or better ones. The agenda is the same...welfare; keep the nation dependant on welfare; that is the Democratic creed.

The Volunteer state is too smart to fall for this doctor selling Snake Oil, can they really want to see their sovereignty sold to the United Nations? That is just what Algore would do with America!

Clarksville had 103,455 people in the 2000 census. The people they quoted, except for one Democrat politician, were all from elsewhere (Nashville, Franklin, Ashland City). Gore carried Robertson Co. and Davidson Co. (Nashville) in 2000 and narrowly lost Cheatham Co. and Montgomery Co. (Clarksville)--in those four counties there were 150,000 people who voted for him in 2000. Even if you subtract the ones who have moved since the election or were already dead in November 2000, not very many of them were eager to see Al Gore in person.

The last time a Dem "channeled" something was when Hillary talked to the spirit of Eleanor Roosevelt during her reign in the WH.

This story is about on the par of that in importance.

This is a familar tactic among Dems to get out the black vote, the oppressed woman vote, the gay rights groups, whatever. Using anger and alleged grievances seems to be what motivates their core when nothing else will.

The Dems are hyperventilating again. There must be something good in this for Republicans.

This is their bottom line and if they are using it this early than their internal polling must be really really bad.

"This just shows you how much support you've got," Dallas Morgan of Nashville told Gore.

2,000 people who were brought out for the barbeque and beer in an entire state?

He's still angry? Good, I hope an ulcer started the same time as the election. I also noticed that he's not teaching that class where he wasn't acredited.

I think the real anger started when he realized that for eight years he was second to a rapist pervert and he had to sit back and watch it.

A better slogan would be, "Channel intelligence and vote Republican!"
