Reply #21: I've gained much respect for Kerry since the election, but I don't think [View All]

he's going to be able to overcome the damage that was caused him during the election. The people don't trust him. He's too nuanced. The IWR- absolutely, and probably that most of all. The 87 B's...

He was excellent in the debates, though. I thought that third debate was the best I'd ever seen behind a podium. He was outstanding.

I just don't think he'll ever get over the rep in the context of what we're dealing with right now.

Gore has a rep, too, in a lot of ways. But I think he positioned himself well while he was out of the spotlight. It's much easier for me to support him because of that. He has his integrity intact because he took advantage of his lack of political interest. Consequently, I think that his positioning, combined with resume as V.P. during the best eight years our country ever saw (and next time he should make VERY liberal use of the Big Dog), would be killer in '08.

I actually think he would DESTROY, especially paired up with Clark.
