No matter what he says or does he will generally be looked on as the loser from 2000 even though he didn't lose, and a guy who couldn't run the country and would have been soft on Bin Laden even though no one will ever know the answer to that question, the guy whose Viet Nam service was marginalized because he was a journalist (but at least he was there) and a sore loser.
This is another more overlooked shame of bushco IMO. The total political assasination of a decent man.
Probably being stored up Katherine Harris's cooz... no one wants in there...
I think Mr. Gore is gearing up, ever so quietly, for another go in 2008.
What difference would a key make? Bush already stole and plundered the lockbox. And the joke is on our kids and grandkids.
Gore's not that decent. None of these politicians are decent-- even Clinton, who I like very much. Gore's difficulties began when he seperated himself from Clinton during his campaign. He was too desperate for the presidency and the media needed a scapegoat. Face it, the media is always in search of the next buffoon, and Howard Dean holds that position rather well at the moment.
You really think so, eoe?
That would make me marginally happier than if it was Kerry (I'm regarding him with suspicion), but I think Gore still has "LOSER" tattooed on his forehead and wouldn't be viable.
Personally, I'd way prefer him over Hillary.
You're not alone, Soz. And that's exactly what he's counting on.
Hmmm. Could be.
Just that it's a list of maybe 20 people with Gore at #18, followed by Hillary and then Kerry. I don't actually want ANY of them to run.
Like who? That's the #1 question on everybody's mind these days. Who who who?
I dunno, there's a hodgepodge of maybe 5 guys at the top (Bayh, Warner, Richardson, etc.), then a great middle (Obama is probably there, though I personally love him) then the no please no no (Gore Kerry Hillary).
Personally I like Gore more now than I ever did when he was Vice President. Maybe now he feels free to be himself rather than an extension of the Clintons. Whether he runs or not in 08' I hope he keeps on talking.
Personally I think old Al spends way too much time talking. We'd all be better off if he'd go back and reinvent the Internet or something.
What is this "truth" of which you speak? Certainly not something that came out of Al Gore's mouth.

Extension of the Clinton's? Au contraire, he lost the election because he moved as far away from them as possible. A spineless thing he did by listening to the "experts" instead of follwing his gut. Regardless of Clinton's downfalls, he remains a popular, well-like president.
