"ELON COLLEGE POLL" from RED STATE Says: ...Waiting for Gore to Jump In..
I know...much hyperbole on my part for citing this saying that folks are "waiting for Gore."

BUT...READ THIS POLL and tell me folks aren't LOOKING?

:shrug:

1. He's going to run
Even the MSM is talking about it now.

It'll be Gore/Edwards or Gore/Obama, Al's choice.

2. Sometimes I feel like the only one who doesn't want that scenario
I'd love him to campaign for whoever ends up being the nom, I'd love him to have a cabinet position, but my God he ran such a horrible campaign, and it's hard to forget, chose LIEBERMAN!

3. That won't happen again - he's a very different man now...
I so want him to run...but you're not the only DU'er who doesn't want him to run - just not for the same reasons as you state!

4. Gore doesn't get a "Free Pass" he has to answer for NAFTA and Pirvitazation of Govt!
Edited on Fri Apr-20-07 10:27 PM by KoKo01
Did he go along with DLC like I and many other "Progresives" did because we felt we were losing to Dems after Reagan...or is it a CORE BELIEF of his.

Even though this Dem NEVER was for NAFTA ...at one point I believed that the DLC was an answer for Dems who were so trashed after Vietnam War (Dem War) and our empasis on Human Rights/Social Rights.

I can't stand the DLC and what they'v become...and I'm glad I was against NAFTA.....but where is the place for people like me. If Gore can't STAND UP on the issues I care about...I HOPE he will come in.

Kucinich is the only other one .....But..I understand folks say he's "unelectable" because of "elf looks" yadda, yadda... :-( and I understand that while fighting for what he ADVOCATES to be MAINSTREAM and NOT FRINGE...for Dems.
