Look out, here comes a meaner greener Al Gore
Like a completely refurbished "pre-owned vehicle," Al Gore seems to be positioning himself to Hillary Clinton’s left and greener than John Kerry for a run at the 2008 Democratic nomination for president. His slogan might well read "reelect Al Gore."
Or so says Dick Morris. It seems that Dick thinks Al is some king of environmental prophets and the hurricanes of last year proved Al "swami" Gore correct.
And Gore may be a man whose time has come in his party. It was he who warned of climate change and predicted its consequences. Hurricane Katrina was just a fulfillment of the prophesies Gore wrote about in his late-1980s book "Earth in the Balance."
But wait a minute. Didn’t Al Gore get defeated the last time he ran? Why yes he did and we all know that he was cheated out of his rightful place by the Electoral College. History may be on Alswami’s side though.
History indicates that candidates who won the popular vote but lost in the Electoral College have all come back to win revenge in subsequent elections. Andrew Jackson, cheated in 1824, won in 1828. Grover Cleveland, cheated in 1888, triumphed in 1892. Samuel Tilden, who won the popular vote in 1876, never ran again, but he dealt away the White House in a deal for the withdrawal for federal troops from the South, allowing the Ku Klux Klan to take over.
Sigh, did you happen to notice how many times Dick said cheated? Let us get to the bottom line here. Hillary. She ain’t going away. Can Al beat Hillary?
If Mrs. Clinton persists in her support of the Iraq war, he could. But never count on Hillary losing an election over a principle. It’s a bad bet. If she moves to the left on the war, as she already shows signs of doing, she would preempt Gore and Kerry and use her tremendous lead in fundraising and ex-officio delegates to cruise to the nomination.
(snip)
But Gore has three things going for him: A perception that he was robbed of the White House and Hillary’s possible stubbornness in continuing to back the war. The third thing? The weather. As the evidence of global climate change impresses everyone who doesn’t work at the White House, Gore looks more and more like a man whose time may have come.
So there you have it. Al Gore is well on his way to possibly winning the Democratic nomination for president. With his new movie, I just do not see how he can lose.

I may as well see if my family can move to Sarge’s compound now. That guy is a truly angry, scary man, to have for president.
Gore is finally going to do what we have been saying Democrats should do. That is,be who you are and run as a Liberal nut job. No triangulating, moving to the center,no parsing words,just go out and say you want to raise taxes to pay for social services.Say you want to get off oil and find new energy to run the country.Say no to wars.
They sure cant win with the lies and BS they tried the last few elections. Might be fun to watch ol Al get after it in debates. It might also shake up any Republican challenger who isn’t ready to debate a total whack job who will say some outrageous stuff with a straight face.
algore couldn’t even carry his home state of Tenn. in the last pres. election. IMHO he just needs to fade off into the sunset. He had his shot and lost. I “shake my head” why the media gives this “has been” any attention whatsoever. He has no relevancy.
algore and billary on the same ticket? Dang, that’s downright scary! Move over Sarge, looks like you could have lots of LST’ers for company if that ever came about.
I think Dick Morris has lost it! The only reason Albore received so many popular votes is that he was the Vice President of the previous admin. Some folks that is like president-elect or something. He wouldn’t stand a chance of getting to the primaries, much less the election.
Boy Howdy, this would be verrry interresting!
What a mud wrestling contest ‘tween algore and hillary. These two deserve eachother.
I wonder though, which algore will we see?
the fat one with a beard, the outdoorsy one in the natural colors, the one with the bulge in his britches, the hyperventilating one screeming on top of his lungs, or will he reinvent hisself a few more times?
Bore is just too angry. Like Hillary. Him going all saudia arabia should be a red flag to most decent folks. He would flame out on the primaries, aka Howard Dean.

I had forgotten about the “bulge in his britches!” Wasn’t that airbrushed in on the cover of the Rolling Stone Mag or such like?
Run, Gorest, run. (the thought gives me the runs)
But credit where credit is due!
This is the man who claimed to have invented the internet! The man has the credibilty of a carnival barker, as well as the brains.
He is a joke being foisted on us by the idiots who actually take him seriously. Personally, IMHO, I hope he does run, so people can see him and Hitlary squabble and expose themselves as the self absorbed, America-hating, lying phonies that they are.
This country is in desperate need of some real leadership by people who care more about their country than their own political power and ambitions!

I agree it would be great if he ran for the reasons you mentioned. However, he question is, will he reinnvent himself as KRAUT says above?
pmartin/Re: #10
My thoughts are, I doubt it.
I think like Gregg says in #2, he will eventually show himself to be, in spite of what all his handlers attempts will do to try to temper it, the socialist and globalist nut job that he really is, in the same mold as the Al Franken’s and Howard Dean’s in this country.
Because, IMHO, he really and truly believes the shclock that he the other socialits have been spewing forth. Unlike Hitlary and others, who are willing to set aside their own real feelings and say whatever they feel is expedient at the time to decieve the sheeple and get elected to satisfy their political ambitions.

You may be right. I know these far left whacos truly believe everything they are spouting. They just lose it if someone else doesn’t “get it” like them. It’s kind of like arguing with that virtual moonbat.
