I am going to say it, Gore/Richardson in 08!!!

[Pierre.Suave]

It is teh BEST ticket ever!!!!!!!

Gore has WON a nobel peace prize and Richardson has been nominated for one 4 times. Then, after their 8 years are up, we can have Richardson as President.

Tell me this is not a good idea, I dare you.

[SteppingRazor]

1. Gore/Obama!

And, hey, what's this political talk doing in the Lounge, anyway?

[Pierre.Suave]

2. How about this

Gore/Richardson for 8 years

Richardson/Obama for another 8 years

Obama/ someone else... for another 8 years

[ceile]

3. I could get behind that.

Richardson is my choice at the moment.

[Pierre.Suave]

4. Mine as well

but if Gore were to run, I would change my desire to have Richardson as his VP instead.

[ceile]

8. I was thinking he would have made a great VP for Dean.

Still a bit pissed that Dean didn't get the nom in 04.

[Pierre.Suave]

14. There were other, bigger, problems in 04

seriously.

[ceile]

21. Right.

[madinmaryland]

5. Just as long as it is NOT Gore/Lieberman 2008.

:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

[Pierre.Suave]

6. HELL NO

WE WONT GO!

I think that I would have to kill someone if that were to happen.

[Crazy Dave]

7. Gore/Kucinich n/t

[Pierre.Suave]

10. Gore and who?

just kidding...

[Crazy Dave]

19. Reminds me of Lieberman back in 2000

My exact words "Gore and who?"

[Pierre.Suave]

26. lol

yeah, mine too.

What a poor decision that was.

Has he ever said anything about that since the "real" lieberman has come out?

[flvegan]

9. No, no, no. Schwarzenegger/Beasties '08!!

Ah-nuld has won, like, 7 Mr. Olympia Sandows and the Beastie Boys have won 2 Grammys!

[Pierre.Suave]

11. BUT

none of them have won, or been nominated for, a Nobel Peace Prize.

[flvegan]

15. Yet.

And Ah-nuld is practically a Kennedy.

You've also got the rap vote, the steroid vote, the NYC vote (take THAT Ghouliani!) and wouldn't it be cool to have 3 white guys in jumpsuits addressing the nation?

[Connonym]

12. Richardson has got the Great Lakes region a bit upset with him

He'd like to start piping away our water and that will not fly with folks here, especially since lake volumes are very low right now. I think we may see this become a huge issue in the future. Personally, I think the smarter more long-term idea would be to focus on developing a cheap effective large-scale desalination method.

[Pierre.Suave]

13. When did he say that?

I live in MN and have not heard a thing about that.

[Connonym]

16. Link inside

"I believe that Western states and Eastern states have not been talking to each other when it comes to proper use of our water resources," Richardson told the Las Vegas Sun for a story published Thursday. "I want a national water policy. We need a dialogue between states to deal with issues like water conservation, water reuse technology, water delivery and water production. States like Wisconsin are awash in water."

17. That really doesnt bother me too much

First, I dont think it would ever happen without a lot of debate.

and Second, we wont let it.

[Connonym]

18. yeah but look at the things * has done that we never thought would happen

I'm not trying to compare Richardson to *, not at all. I'm just saying that crazier things have happened

[Pierre.Suave]

25. you can have my water

when you pry it from my cold dead lips... or something like that...

I should start a De-Salinization company. It looks like that may be the way to go, that and alternative energy.

[Deep13]

20. Great idea four months ago.

Frankly, HRC is unstoppable now.

[Pierre.Suave]

23. Well then

we have another 4 years with a republican president to go...

[Burma Jones]

22. Way too Competent

The Merkin People would never elect people with such ability.....Presidents have to be "likeable" and "someone you could have a beer with" :sarcasm:

[Pierre.Suave]

24. lol

unfortunately, you may be correct.

[1gobluedem]

27. AFTER you explain very firmly to Bill Richardson that the Great Lakes are not for sale

Then I'll consider it.

[Pierre.Suave]

28. Dont you worry

I will make sure he understands that. I will not let it be sold and destroy the natural beauty.
