1. DU eats all it's heroes. For Gore it will happen the day he endorses Hillary Clinton.

9. LOL. Just goes to show the Gore love is superficial and conditional
If Gore does ANYTHING that is not pre-approved by certain bloggers, he is TOAST! No wonder Gore doesn't want to cater to our crowd (I consider myself to be a member of the more rational left). He knows how finicky we can be.

2. If he doesn't run and she wins the nomination, he will endorse her.
He's a Democrat, and he's going to do what he can to ensure that we win the presidency and increase our majority in the House and Senate.

4. If Al Gore were to endorse Senator Clinton...
...I'd take my camera outside and snap a few quick ones of the pigs flying over my roof.

Just sayin'...there are some old wounds there that aren't gonna heal between now and November 2008.

11. She'd Be The Next Howard Dean
And I'm entirely comfortable with her in that role. And I'd be just as comfortable with Obama or Edwards in the John Kerry role.

That said, there's plenty of bad blood between the Gore's and the Clinton's. An endorsement is highly unlikely, although he'd probably give a speech at the convention for whoever is the nominee.

13. Did McCain's supporters really believe he gave Bush a heartfelt endorsement
and really stood behind him? Or did he hold his nose and endorse, and his supporters did the same?

All the Dem. endorsements will swing to the nomimee, whether or not they think they will do a great job.

14. Gore will endorse Clinton IF she gets the nom.
I am likely to grudgingly vote for her in the generals regardless.

16. Other -
Demand that the Noble Prize, the Emmmy and the Oscar all be returned.

Then throw a shit fit and post "well I guess Nader was right".

You need that option.

17. SO WAIT. WAIT! 63% of respondants wouldn't vote for Hillary?
WTF! The tombstones are going to be HUGE if she gets the nomination. Still holding out for Gore though.

19. I'm confused about this as well.
If she wins the nomination (which she probably will), DUers wouldn't vote for her when she's running against a Republican?

21. They shouldn't be.
You don't automatically get tombstoned if you don't support Madam Windsock should she win the nomination.

You simply cannot make disparaging remarks about the free-trade-shillin', war-votin' weathervane on this board should that possibility occur.

IOW, become a full time Lounge Lizard like I'm going to do . . . IF she wins.

I also don't do inevitability and hope America wakes up and supports a REAL labor candidate like Edwards.

No doubt. The rules are clear.

20. Why would he endorse her?
He's going to run himself.

BTW, if he didn't run he would endorse Obama.
