If you are a hardcore Gore Supporter, join us!
We have gained many members just in the past few days with the news that Gore may come back. I have been saying for weeks now that we have the impression that he will. It is sad that some of his supporters will support a candidate who has no chance of winning all because he sat out 7 months. It should not diminish the respect for him. He severed nearly 30 years and has never lost a election. Gore is our only hope, and if he does come back, he will get most of his support back. All of the experts are saying Gore can jump back in and win and would have no trouble raising money and such. Our support has got him thinking. With even more, he may decide soon!

I hope you will join us!

I certainly would appreciate it if he would decide to run (and WIN) once again in 2004. Gore/Clark sounds like a perfect combination!!!!

Gore still not running

Some Dems want former veep to enter race
From John King
CNN Washington Bureau
Friday, August 1, 2003 Posted: 1:25 PM EDT (1725 GMT)


WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former Vice President Al Gore was "amused" by a newspaper report suggesting he is coming under pressure to reconsider his decision not to seek the 2004 Democratic presidential nomination, but he has not changed his mind, according to a confidant.

One of Gore's longtime political advisers told CNN Friday that Gore told him that "nothing has changed."

"He was definitive," said the associate, who said he spoke to the former vice president after The Hill newspaper suggested some Democrats were pressuring Gore to think about entering the race.

"Every conversation I have had with him leads me to believe there is no way -- under no circumstances," the Gore associate said. Asked specifically about the most recent conversation, the source said, "He was somewhat amused but was clear nothing has changed."

4. Gore did not say that.
As I have said CNN reported that he would nix the draft in June by a statement soon. Which he never did. It was a lie, just like this. We confronted CNN with that lie, and may this one too. Nothing gets by our Media Watch Group!

5. That report seems suspect to me
Edited on Sun Aug-03-03 01:28 AM by nu_duer
This struck me the first time I read that very short piece, and upon re-reading it, it seems pretty suspect.

This unnamed Gore "associate" twice said that Gore was "amused" by the recent talk that he's coming under pressure to get back in.

Amused?

I do not think Gore would be quite so disrespectful and dismissive of those who think he should run, even if the bottom line is that he won't.

Nah, a five paragraph piece relating a second-hand assertion from an anonymous source that Gore dismisses calls for him to enter the race as "amusing" falls a little short of a declaration for me.
