Whew. They're out in force today.

It's all I can do not to write in a retort to every single one of them.
Ommmmmmmmm.

1. Check this out.

The trolls are out in full force today trying to beat down the Al Gore movement. As shown in this troll thread on Daily Kos and throughly debunked here the neo-cons will use any and all means and measures to lie where needed.

It seems Rupert Murdoch’s Sky News is twisting Al Gore’s standard response of “I have no plans to run” into “I will not seek the office of the Presidency.” Murdoch, for those not in the know, owns Fox News and now the Wall Street Journal, typically not known to be the bastions of truth.

But I will give props to the Murdoch camp. By lying about Gore, it puts puts the meme out there that he is not a contender and forces Gore to denounce the statement. It should be further mentioned that for what ever reason, Rupert Murdoch is backing Hillary Clinton and at this point, Al Gore is the ONLY one who can disrupt her campaign. Notice how Fox News goes after Gore repeatedly and leaves Hillary mostly unscathed? And after Gore’s Current.com video releases on Monday, Murdoch may have felt the time was right to ratchet up the attack on the Goracle.

However, I am tapping my foot and I am not signaling for a Senator Craig reach-around.

2. I think they've been out since Friday when every other thread

was a pro-Gore thread. I think the honeymoon is over in GD for Gore. The Hillary supporters are insufferable... almost to a person. They definitely feel threatened.

3. I agree they feel threatened

But, acha nina! Have you seen the amount of recommends his threads are getting?

This campaign season is much different than the one in '04. Back then, pretty much everyone at DU had already decided on a candidate by this time three years ago. Now, many haven't made a decision.

Moreover, when DU polls are posted for the candidates, Hillary is always close to the bottom. The ONLY reason, IMHO, she is "polling" like she is, is because of the MSM. (See this article: http://dailyhowler.com/ about a third from the top of the page.) They are minding their masters and setting her up to be the Dem nom.
