21. I believe he's said he has no plans to run.
Which leaves quite a bit of wiggle room.

I love Albert Gore ....

Edited on Sat Nov-11-06 06:12 PM by Trajan

I recently saw him at The Rose Garden, in Portland, Oregon.

At the end of His discussion of Global Warming, there was a Q&A period ...

One of the audience members told Al that he had started a website whose sole purpose was to convince Vice President Gore to again run for the highest office, and to collect donations for that cause ... That he knew Gore WOULD win .. again ... if he were to jump in the race ....

The audience, of course, erupted into loud applause, and Al, being his typical modest self, was so embarrased AND appreciative of the crowds approval .....

But then he got very serious : He said he was deeply moved by the sentiments, and that he understood how so many people want him to try again ... but: he was done with elective politics ....

Albert Gore wants NO part of an elective campaign, with all of the ugliness and stress .... He LIKES His life as it is now .... He is an advisor to great nations, he is deeply involved with those subjects which move him most ... the causes that motivate his soul ....

It was sad to hear it from his own lips, because I truly adore Albert Gore as a human being ....

But he was speaking truth .... Albert Gore will NOT run for President of the United States ....

Again : Albert Gore will NOT run for President of the United States ....

As much as I want him to run, I think I would rather he be happy in his place in the world ...

IF running made him happy, then by all means, he should, and he would get MY vote before any other candidate ...

But he wore his heart on his sleeve that evening in October ... and I believe him ...

Albert Gore will NOT run for President of the United States ....

Having said that : I bet he would be as awesome a Secretary Of State as he is a steward of the environment ....

4. It's FAUX!
and they WANT the Dems to run Hillary. They believe any wingnut will beat Hillary because the repuke wingnut base HATES Hillary (no matter how hard Hill whores for Bush on the war and his nazi "Patriot Acts" and the rest of it).

So they run this poll that makes it seem like there isn't any point in anyone else even entering the race.

9. For Chriminey Sake
They want Hillary to run. Badly. It's their best shot in 08
We, the dem netroots, need to facilitate organization of the greassroots in the early primary states to demonstate this obvious VERY IMPORTANT FACT: a vote for Hillary is a vote for another GOP administration and devastation of downticket dems in many many states.

15. Reminds me of - LIEBERMAN leading in all the early polls for the 2004 Dem nomination.
Boy, was that accurate.

"If the 2004 Democratic presidential primary in your state were being held today, and the candidates were , for whom would you vote?" Options were rotated

% .

Joseph Lieberman 29
Richard Gephardt 19
John Kerry 14
Carol Moseley Braun 6
John Edwards 4
Al Sharpton 3
Bob Graham 3
Howard Dean 3
Dennis Kucinich 2
Other (vol.) 1
None (vol.) 1
No opinion 14

17. The problem with that survey is that first of all it has too many
candidates to determine the outcome of a one-on-one race and secondly, and most important, it is answered mostly by FOX watchers!

I know people love him to death, but he is no lobger viable on the national landscape.

25. I take this poll not with a grain of salt but with a bag of salt
The Iowa caucus and New Hampshire Primary aren't going to be held for over a year. This poll is meaningless as are all of the others.

30. The rationalizations on this thread are AMAZING .
Clinton is by far the most popular Democrat for president. Get used to it.

Hillary will be our next president.
