Gore Invokes 2000 Vote to Help Townsend

Former vice president Al Gore yesterday urged Maryland Democrats to remember the outrage they felt over the results of the 2000 presidential election and channel it to bring voters to the polls in the tight gubernatorial race.

Appearing with Lt. Gov. Kathleen Kennedy Townsend at a boisterous rally at Bowie State University, Gore asked people whether they recalled where they were when the U.S. Supreme Court decided to discontinue counting ballots from the disputed Florida vote two years ago.

Dozens of hands shot up.

"Are you over it?" Gore asked, to which the crowd shouted that it was not. "Use that feeling as a source of energy and drive and commitment. And if anyone tells you that one vote doesn't make a difference, send them to me."

I remember where I was, Al! I was sitting here late at night, hoping and praying they would find a way to keep you from stealing the presidency, you low classed, lying, slug!

This ^$%^$ing retard has the ^%$^%ing nerve to compare his attempted theft of the election to Pearl Harbor, JFK's assassination, and 9/11? My goodness, how much more %^$^%ing STUPID can these people get?

Maryland Bump!

KKT and some guy named Al were at Bowie State University yesterday. KKT demonstrated that she is an idiot:

When it was her turn to greet the students, Townsend slipped and said, "It's great to be at Coppin State University" -- a mistake that prompted a smattering of chuckles and confusion in the crowd.

Townsend tried to recover by saying, "I'm so sorry, but I could never tell the difference between a touchdown and a football" -- a reference to a gaffe she once made, saying that the Baltimore Ravens had scored a football.

A dog is more qualified to be the governor than KKT is.

This just in! Doctors at JHU Medical Center have just released the latest CAT scan of KKT's brain scan. It can be seen here

The only word I can use to describe Gore is pitiful. What an unbelievable performance! Was it a rally for Townsend? It sounded like a whining session for Gore--what a joke he is! Can you imagine him as president? OMG--!!!

A dog is more qualified to be the governor than KKT is.

The DemocRATs in Maryland decided to test the "Yellow Dog" theory, so they nominated a yellow dog for governor. Looks like the theory isn't going to hold up.

By the way, you might notice that the Gores and the Clinton's, when they come to Maryland to support that dog, don't go anywhere but PG and Montgomery counties and Baltimore city.

Think about the movie... “The Fly”. Help me... HELP MEEEE!

Gore pimping KKT... he can't figure out what sex he is!

The dope is a born loser.

[Mfkmmof4]

What a disgrace and to think I am expected to vote for her and guess what I am a Democrat and will not!!

[Bigg Red]

You think all those historically black colleges look alike to Kathy?

[mombonn]

He vastly misoverestimates his importance.

[Wphile]

Did you see this on TV? It was amazing. Gore is such a DOPE! Good Lord, were we ever spared.

Gore is trying to invoke Kennedy assassination and 9/11 type of sentiment to the SCOTUS decision?? Uh, nice try Al...ain't gonna happen. Especially when you read about all those Gore voters who were so glad he lost after 9/11 happened.

[John W]

Saw a clip of this,he didn't look good.

YES!! Ehrlich is going to the same places, too. As he has said, it's his commanding lead in the rest of the state that allows him to do this.
The campaign is totally in areas where KKT should be winning handily.

We know which candidate is on the defensive :-)
