PREDICTIONS: WILL GORE RUN IN '08?


[+] ballot by Cathexis
created Wed May 17, 06

Former VP Al Gore has been avoiding direct politics since the contentious and controversial 2000 presdiential election. When asked if he would run again, he has repeatedly laughed it off with:

''Like I said, I’m a recovering politician.''

But lately, he has amended that quip with:

''But you always have to worry about a relapse.''

Do you believe Al Gore will make a run for the US presidency in 2008?

Yes
Probably / Might
Depends ... (describe condition)
Probably not
No
I hope not
I hope so
Let's hope not

COMMENTS:
I think he might be talked into it, positioned as "the Anti- Hillary."

IMO, he's too decent a man to get into that maelstrom again.

He doesn't have a chance. The Republican PR machine will just rehash the old arguments and pile onto that.

C-Tuck: No doubt, but ... some flavor of that will happen anyway. As we've already seen -- any 'info' they don't have,m they'll make up. The only details will be 'what are the specifics of the smears and lies.'

Me ... I have mixed feelings. I feel he'd be a great candidate, but ... I'm not sure I'd ask him to wade through the sewage that is rightwing politics, these days.

so Al Gore's boring, huh?
Dontcha think that after the chinmp and monkey-bra crew,
that 'Boring Al' might be just what the country needs right now?
At least he won't be up to any cigar-dippin' shenanigans,
-OR selling out to Halliburton!!

Just think: a plodding, straight-as-a-rod boring President.
My goodness: just like the old days!
Would America go for that,
or do they just LIKE continuous shit???

I think it would be a mistake if he did, but he might.

Should he? ballot #72613

Anyone but Hillary. Well, almost anyone.
by FiddleFaddleOnLSD on Wed May 17, 06 12:40pm [+]

Damn, sorry FF! I probably had that ballot in my subconscious.
by Cathexis on Wed May 17, 06 1:02pm [+]

They aren't the same. My question asked "SHOULD HE", yours asks "WILL HE". Different takes.
by FiddleFaddleOnLSD on Wed May 17, 06 1:15pm [+]

^What Mojo said^
He's too good.. there's no way someone that honest could win the presidency.
by Jyl on Wed May 17, 06 1:49pm [+]

^ You'd be surprised!
after all the crap,
the country might be just ready for it!
by aplmac on Wed May 17, 06 2:15pm [+]

I'd love to know what convinced him *not* to run back in '04. The way things went back then, he was a mortal lock for the job, had he run.
by Truthseeker013 on Wed May 17, 06 2:40pm [+]

Although we Democrats may love Al Gore and his ideas, he is just too stiff and supercilious to win another election. He and John Kerry just can't seem to shake loose and appear as a "real person."

Mr. Bush was elected because average Americans felt he was more like them than the other guy.

The next President will be the man or woman who can achieve that same connection with the voting public.
by xxxxxxxx on Wed May 17, 06 3:56pm [+]

^And, at this point, using the "real person" index to predict outcomes, I think John McCain is closest for the Republicans and John Edwards for the Democrats.
by xxxxxxxx on Wed May 17, 06 3:57pm [+]

Might be a better idea to run him
as the Vice-Presidential candidate!

No-one could say he's not qualified for the job.
THAT,I reckon, could be a big strength on any ticket
- a guy applying for Veep,
whose already done eight years on the job.
Tell me he wouldn't know what to do at work,every day.
