8. i don't think so either
Plus, while I don't believe that Gore is best buddies with the Clinton's, I don't think even if he does prefer someone over Hillary, that he's going to say it. :shrug:


I think he'll fully support whomever gets the nod, but no endorsements until then.

OTHER: I'd be surprised.
If he doesn't jump in, and it's a bit late for that at this stage, I think he'll let the country decide and wait to endorse at the general.

3. Clue me in on why you think he will do it tomorrow.
I haven't been here all day, so I have no idea what is going on.

9. Climate Conference starts tomorrow
I supposed Al Gore might use that opportunity to endorse Obama, but I kind of doubt it. My gut is saying Teddy.

12. I think the endorsement will be from Bloomberg.
I thought I read something about Obama and Bloomberg meeting or something earlier in the week. I did not pay much attention. I don't think Bloomberg's endorsement will mean much outside New York although Bloomberg controls some of the news sources.

14. I hope the party leaders have the good graces to stay out of this!
at least to some extent less than they have already picked who we get to vote for.

21. No - it turned out to make no difference to the outcome.
People want to make up their own mind which is the best candidate.

Endorsements make very little difference (whether from Oprah Winfrey, Wes Clark, Michael Moore, Al Gore, Kevin Bacon ...)

20. DU's Hillarista contingent will savage Gore as they have Oprah and Sean Penn
Let's not underestimate the viciousness of the Hamiltonian authoritarian wing of the Democratic Party.

24. lol
probably true, but coming from you, it's a riot. After all, didn't you savage RFK Jr. for endorsing Clinton?

23. Anti-Obamites who once praised Gore on these boards will spew
the most hateful venom towards Obama and Gore. :shrug:

25. I'd bet anything it won't be Gore. Kennedy? Maybe.
Another Senator? A Governor? All I know is it won't be Gore.
