Action alert -- If you support Gore, need people to write LTTEs to the Detroit News
Edited on Wed Sep-05-07 05:54 PM by SharonRB
In today's Detroit News, there is an article entitled "Seven questions about the 2008 campaign." Here's a link to the article and the text of #5 that requires a response. We need to tell them loud and clear that there is much yearning for Gore to enter the race.

I'm getting ready to write my letter now. I'd love to see them get letters from all over the country!

Write them at: letters@detnews.com

5 . Is it too late for Al Gore or Newt Gingrich to get into the race?

Yes. Not that they couldn't jump in. But the prospects do not look bright for either.

"It's not too late for Al Gore and Newt to get in, but it's certainly too late for either of them to win," Newhouse said.

The entry into the race by former senator Fred Thompson of Tennessee means far less room for Gingrich, and the former House speaker carries very high negatives. Gore has significant popularity among Democrats, but because Democrats are happy with their candidates, there is no real yearning for him to enter.

1. Happy with their Candidates?
Only if Kucinich was leading the polls. Otherwise, please Gore -- get in.
