Too bad, Barack isn't great but he's still better than that asshole.

Obama oddly enough.

Gore would probably get crucified by 527's on gas tax/carbon tax.

That's a tough call.  At this point, I would say Obama has the better chance, simply because Obama hasn't been the public figure Gore has been, and as such, there isn't as much material easily referenced by the competition to paint him as weak.

Woah I guess everyone here has drank the kool-aid that says Gore is an uber-popular person. He is only among LIBERALS, not even among working class democrats, that much.

Yeah but Gore has more radical positions than Obama on issues that would kill him.

Probably Gore, but Obama will run a much better campaign than Gore did in 2000.

Gore had the substance. Obama has the style.

Style will get you elected over stubstance usually.

Gore would have a better chance to win (almost guaranteed) but his ceiling lower.
