A new potential Ticket Balancer:;;AL Gore
Just a thought..


But given The Nominee is likely going to be From the Northeast (Dean Kerry, Lieberman) or Wes Clark... It just seems to be that a Southern running mate is possible if not probable.

Graham and Edwards are obvious... but what about Al Gore returning for a third stint?

He balances Dean, Kerry and Lieberman quite nicely and no one can claim he is inexperienced and can't pull votes.

2. I don't think Gore would want to be
vice president again. He spent 8 years at the job and I think if he can't be president he is done with elective politics.

3. The only thing more likely to happen
Would be for Rove, Cheney and the Chimp to hold a joint news conference and confess to their crimes and lies.

4. I also think hes done with running for office
but he will busy and active in politics (as he said in a speech a while back). He will be getting his tv station off the ground and working behind the scenes politically and giving speeches about the direction he'd like to see the country go. I think he could possibly be even more effective in that role (he can be more honest and take more political risks) than if he tried to recapture something thats now history.I'm sure he and Tipper(and their lovely family) will continue to work for their beliefs and we are all more fortunate for them doing so.
