Title: Al Gore-2008 Post by: J.R. Brown on February 20, 2005, 04:45:30 AM Could Al Gore get the nomination in 2008 and if so could he win in the general election?
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: ○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└ on February 20, 2005, 05:08:24 AM There's a small but non-zero chance of him pulling a Nixon.
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: Rob on February 20, 2005, 05:09:46 AM It would be easier for him to win the general than the nomination.

I think he could pull it off if he got back into shape.
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: Akno21 on February 20, 2005, 08:45:05 AM Depends which Al Gore shows up. If the populist one shows up, he could win Iowa, do well everywhere except the Northeast, where Kerry/Clinton would do well, and the Midwest, which Bayh would win.
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: ian on February 20, 2005, 12:42:02 PM I think Gore would win the nomination, but lose the general election. I just hope he doesn't run!
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: BobOMac2k2 on February 20, 2005, 01:01:59 PM I'm sure he would win...
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: Keystone Phil on February 20, 2005, 01:03:24 PM I think Gore would win the nomination, but lose the general election. I just hope he doesn't run! I agree with everything there except the last part. Run Al Run! Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: ○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└ on February 20, 2005, 10:49:54 PM I'm more intereted in hearing about how he does in the general election. Basically no one knows who they're going to vote for in the primary yet.
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: Moooooo on February 20, 2005, 11:00:15 PM He said like a week ago that he will definitley NOT be a candidate in 2008.
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: AuH2O on February 20, 2005, 11:15:48 PM I dunno, I've discussed this elsewhere and I'm not sure what I think in terms of whether he wants to run. Personally I think 2000 haunts him and he wants badly to run, but we'll see.
Odds: nomination: 15:1 general: 75:1 Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: RJ on February 21, 2005, 12:33:11 AM Gore would have an outside shot at winning the nomination. He could defeat someone like that aweful Bill Frist or maybe even if old DICK(Cheyney) were to run in 2008. Of course old DICK would have to have some ambition of actually being the president in order for this to occur. If the Al Gore shows up like the one who spoke in the 2004 Democratic Convention, he would do quite well. If the one who campaigned in 2000 shows, it's curtains---It would take a whole lot more than another recount to save him. On a side note, I still can't believe that that campaign actually came as close to winning as it did.
Juswt had a thought: What if Cheyney ran against Gore in 2008??? Ugh!!! Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: YRABNNRM on February 21, 2005, 12:37:41 AM Who the hell is Cheyney?
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: Rob on February 21, 2005, 12:44:26 AM Who the hell is Cheyney? LOL, I was wondering that too ;) Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: minionofmidas on February 21, 2005, 08:13:34 AM Dick Cheney's good twin brother. :)
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: RJ on February 21, 2005, 11:14:39 AM Looks like I spelled old DICK's name wrong. Cheney. There, happy?
Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: J.R. Brown on February 21, 2005, 11:13:56 PM Who the hell is Cheyney? LOL, I was wondering that too ;) A little anal, aren't we. Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: YRABNNRM on February 22, 2005, 12:55:58 AM Looks like I spelled old DICK's name wrong. Cheney. There, happy? Do you like the word dick or something? Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: RJ on February 22, 2005, 01:03:07 AM Looks like I spelled old DICK's name wrong. Cheney. There, happy? Do you like the word dick or something? Never has there ever been a more descriptive name for a politician. Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: ATFFL on February 22, 2005, 02:42:25 PM Looks like I spelled old DICK's name wrong. Cheney. There, happy? Do you like the word dick or something? Never has there ever been a more descriptive name for a politician. Dick Armey? Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: Keystone Phil on February 22, 2005, 02:48:55 PM Looks like I spelled old DICK's name wrong. Cheney. There, happy? Do you like the word dick or something? Never has there ever been a more descriptive name for a politician. Dick Armey? Or how about Dick Gephardt? Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: RJ on February 22, 2005, 04:27:14 PM Or how about Dick Gephardt? Hmm. I'll have to think about those two for a while. Title: Re: Al Gore-2008 Post by: RJ on February 22, 2005, 04:28:35 PM Ok, I've thought about it. Neither of those two are as adequately named as Cheney! ;)
