algore has just admitted that he is not his own man. He's a front for various advisors. Now, if I want a front for a President, I'll certainly vote for one, who's not just so grating, fingernails on the chalkboard grating.

And yet there are some "real conservatives" around here who believe it would have been better for America had this walking, talking, grunt-shouting mass of dysfunction been elected POTUS. Then, you see, people would have been really sick of the Democrats (eight years of Clinton alone couldn't turn them off, I guess) and we could have gotten a real conservative in the White House, instead of President Bush.

Sometimes I read this board and just shake my head...

Uh, care to elaborate on that?

I know of no one on this forum that has ever made that opinion known to anyone else.

To do so would invite all sorts of flames.

Nobody and I do mean NOBODY that has the least shred of conservative values in their body would put that belief forward.

Gore is now and has always been, a flaming liberal with green tendencies that just happened to have found a niche in the Demoncrapie party into which, to his delight, he fit well.

Shake your head all you want as you read this board, but please be sure you really understand the feelings of some of the participants on it.

I have a faint memory of a couple of misguided demoncrapies-in-disguise that wandered over here from Terry Coppage's crap site (Barflop, uh, Fartflop, no, uh, Barfbop, oh whatever the hell he calls his piss-poor site) or from Demoncrapies Underground, that attempted to put such thoughts forward, especially during the heart felt dissatisfaction quite a few conservatives felt with Bush over the CFR debacle.

They left quickly, once the "true conservatives" told them how stupid their opinion was.

Expenditure of $1 million and a late campaign stop could not endear Gore to his fellow Tennesseeans.

I don't admire Gore because I read his book and concluded it was written by an idiot.

Meanwhile, those in Tennessee know him better; so I guess Gore has more strikes than being a simple idiot.

Interesting article. Thanks for posting. Here is the worst advisor Gore had, by far, and I notice he has no plans to fire her:

The most influential adviser for 2000 figures to exert the same influence for 2004: Karenna Gore Schiff.

She is a young mother and a lawyer. She needs to spend time with her kids, and if she wants, to work as a lawyer. When she tries to "connect" with voters for Gore, she comes off so poorly all she does is ensure MORE voters won't vote for him. If she is again in charge, have no fear, Gore is a goner.

The "Tennesee Two by Four" can't be a Green candidate, as he is severely threatened by forest fires.

Oh, really? Try this on for size.

I had just read this post, and that's why it was on my mind when I was checking out this thread. I guess you must have missed that one.

Gore delivered an extraordinary explanation for why he is not president of the United States. He would "shed the constraint" on him imposed by consultants if he runs in 2004.

This really strains credibility, especially when one recalls Gore boasting it was he who personally designed his GORE campaign logo (no consultant did that), and it was Gore himself who reportedly micro-managed the FL recount mess (again, no consultant). Yet, today, 20 months later, we are told Gore was like a dog on a leash with these consultants. I don't buy it.

Plus, I realize why he is saying this. For if he now said "OK, I made some bad decisions in 2000 -- but, now, I am ready to make good decisions as your president if you elect me in 2004," well, no one would vote for him.

If you enjoy watching in-fighting on the Left, then you'll love this recent thread:

I asked several prominent Democrats their opinion of what Gore said last weekend, and found all highly critical and none willing to go on record. One senior member of the House, respected in Democratic circles, said: "The wrong thing for Al Gore to do is to try to re-invent himself. I cannot think of a worse idea for him." Yet, he added, if he must predict the 2004 nominee this early, it would be Gore.

If you're ready to see the three newest versions of Al Gore, check out post #1 on this thread:

"..this walking, talking, grunt-shouting mass of dysfunction ..."

Couldn't have said it better! And I agree- anyone who would rather see the GoreBot in the White House is brain-dead.

As a poet, I love the name "Gore"
It rhymes well with "bore" and with "snore"
There are more words I'm sure
Including one not so pure
But I'm nice and won't list any more!

I just can't help but wonder about people that would aline themselves with Gore, except those in his immediate family. I wonder what type of Government they really want running the US and heavily influencing the world. Gore is a loser! He has been for years. Besides, after all the "Alfa" stuff, the additonal question is, does he have all his bingo card numbers. Surely, his support comes from some "grass root type of "way out" beliefs, but I can't help but question how many really believe such to the tune of voting for the turkey?

Reminds me of Bob Dole. Had Bob Dole ran as Bob Dole in '96, the election may have been different. But Dole listened to one too many advisors, and never showed personality to the camera. Apparently Gore suffered from the same problem.

I'm not wishing Gore more success in '04, but he is right -- listening to too many advisors kills your campaign.
