Biden for the hilarity, but I did enjoy following the Bush-Gore campaign. The humor on Gore was immense. I remember little things here and there. Billy Crystal at the Oscars, "In Robin Williams new movie, he plays a robot that tries to become human...it's called "The Al Gore Story"." Little stuff like that. The fact that he came as close as he did was a surprise lol It'd be fun to beat him again.

If it were 1988, Gore would be my preferred candidate. In today's world, Biden.

I just realized while reading Reaganfan's post that it's somewhat amusing that we could've had a Bush-Gore race twelve years earlier, only it would be Bush that would be the incumbent VP.

Haha, Cruz and Christie on the ticket might produce more internal disagreement than the actual debates!

1988 seems like the year we ran out of ideas.

Gore was pro-life and censorious of the media in 1988. That, in Cathcon's mind, probably trumps Catholic stewartship doctrine.

 Al Gore, because he is to the right of Joe Biden on most issues.

Might be a little harder this time ... mind you, you've still got the Supreme Court to fix it for you.

Gore was pro-choice by '88.

Gore, obviously.

Right about global warming, right about Iraq, right about "people vs the powerful."

Wrong about Joe Lieberman. Eh, it evens out.

Biden I don't dislike or anything, but a little goes a long way.
