7. Not sure we should trust Forbes nor did I imply that. Just thought people |
|
might find it interesting.

14. Me too. I was surprised that he got a more liberal score than Obama. |
|
Maybe I shouldn't have been, but I was. Obama and Gravel had the weakest scores on Environment and Energy.
Foreign Trade seems to be the category with the widest variances between the dem candidates. Kucinich and Edwards look good, as I expected, and I was pleased to see Biden's score. I suspect Edwards' Social score would be a bit better were it not for his stance on gay marriage. Still a good score though.
What's up with Richardson's Foreign Trade rating??
Interesting.

15. Here's what Forbes said about Al |
|
Repeated calls by supporters for another presidential run have so far gone unanswered. Gore has only said, occasionally through family members, that a run is highly unlikely. We are listing him in our 2008 presidential candidate database because he has never strictly ruled out the possibility that he would enter the race.
:D
