1. Gore wanted to show HOT glacier on glacier action!

Funny and charming right out of the gate.

[fujiyama]

2. He's freakin awesome

Funny as hell!

[More Than A Feeling]

3. "Hot glacier on glacier action"

wow...:rofl:

[Subdivisions]

4. Surprised the film is so successful...now the third highest grossing

documentary of all time.

[Bobbie Jo]

5. Going out on a limb here....

Oh yeah....this guy's running.

Give em hell Al!!

[Subdivisions]

6. Did you hear Jack Cafferty (CNN) earlier? Classic Jack!

They had a segment about whether Al would run or not and throughout the whole thing they said over and over that he has said over and over that he isn't planning on running and when Wolfman tossed it to Jack, Jack goes:

"Look! He's going to run, ok?"

[RiverStone]

9. I'd go waaaaaaaay out on a limb for GORE in 08!

Can't imagine a better or wiser statesperson to represent the DEMS and our country.

[Subdivisions]

7. Here comes the question....!

[Subdivisions]

10. Wait for it....

[Subdivisions]

11. What?! Jay didn't ask him!!!! NOOO!

Oh well, he's going to run! Was just hoping for a surprise announcement. :(

[karmaqueen]

8. He is fantastic!

It is just sad to think of what should have been. How could anyone vote for that idiot over Gore?

[LSK]

12. he was great!!!

[thereismore]

13. that's my ticket. Al Hussein '08.

:)

[jgraz]

14. Gore/Feingold?

That would be my pick.

[buddysmellgood]

15. Sorry, we can't waste Feingold on the VP spot. He is too important in the senate.

[jgraz]

17. Good point -- I just want Russ to run everything

[buddysmellgood]

20. Shhhhh. We're working on it.

[LSK]

16. Gore/Edwards

Although I wish Edwards would run for Senate.

[jgraz]

18. Bad electoral math

Same reason we won't see a Gore/Clark ticket.

[LSK]

19. 2 southerners?

[jgraz]

21. Yep. Not sure it's ACTUALLY bad, but I bet the Dem strategists will hate it

They'll want to balance with someone from the Midwest or the Northeast. Obama makes more sense under this calculation: IL is the perfect big, industrial, midwest state to go after. If Obama was from PA, I'd say he was a lock for Veep.

[LSK]

22. I dont think Gore would be influenced much by Dem strategists

He saw what they did or more like did not do for Kerry.

[jgraz]

23. Two words: Joe Lieberman

He certainly went for the "strategic" choice last time. Let's hope he does better if he gets the nomination this time.

[LSK]

24. two more words: Howard Dean

Remember when Gore endorsed him??? http://www.cnn.com/2003/ALLPOLITICS/12/09/elec04.prez.gore.dean/

Gore of 2000 is not Gore of 2006 (or even 2004).

[jgraz]

25. Yep -- excellent point.

I really didn't care much for Gore 2000. Gore 2006 is much much better.

[hamletsophelia]

26. what are you smoking!

the above is not possible be realistic please understand my point.. sheesh
