Weird notion about a Gore candidacy in 2008.
Advertisements [?]
--- I can't exactly put this in fully documented terms,.. or really as anything more than a "gut" intuition,.... but here's what I'm thinking. There are obviously a lot of people in the country today,.. people who voted for Bush in 2000, but who now wish that George Bush had never been elected/selected. Gore should have been the president in 2000. If he were to run in 2008, it would offer those disillusioned voters a chance to do something that the vast majority of people never get to do -- go back and correct a terrible mistake,... to put things right again,... the way they were supposed to be eight years ago. God help me for thinking it,... but I believe that a significant number of voters would look at a Gore candidacy in exactly those terms. Anyone?
