The former vice president is rounding up venture capitalists

He may be pitching them, but I doubt he'll have much luck getting them to pony up money. Venture capitalists need to make high returns on their investments, and I sincerely doubt that a liberal network will provide that.

Gore may succeed in raising enough money to get this venture off the ground, but it won't come from venture capitalists acting professionally.

It may come from a lot of rich and influential liberals who are willing to take losses in hopes of reviving their moribund electoral hopes.

But if a liberal network proves to be a money maker, then I will bite the bullet and read both "It Takes a Village" and Hillary's ghost-written bio.

Both of Hillary's books were ghost-written, which indicates that the liberals' most "creative minds" need help -- they aren't that creative. A liberal talk-show network would be bereft of new ideas. They would degenerate into hate speech and silliness, much like Democratic Underground.

The reason Al's little project will fail is that nobody wants to buy what the liberals are selling (at least not enough to make it in the free market). I don't think you have to worry about reading either of Hillary's books.
