More '08 Speculation

More speculation today for the ’08 Democratic nomination run from Chris Matthews, who is reporting that Al Gore won’t run in ’08. It seems that the speculation makers are having a hey-day today…

Al Gore won't run for president in 2008 (Chris Matthews)

The 2008 Presidential campaign will not include Al Gore. I'm reporting tonight that the former Vice President and 2000 Democratic Presidential nominee will not run for President. I've been given this scoop from a perfect source who informed me that the purpose of this disclosure at this time is to end speculation about a campaign that will never occur.

So, now that Al Gore is out... what does this mean for the likely 2008 battle between Hillary and John Kerry?

Ron reported earlier today on a story from the Boston Herald, about a comment that Ted Kennedy made yesterday on ABC-TV’s “This Week.”

The San Jose Mercury also has a take on that story, today... “Sorry, Hillary, but Teddy's a Kerry man.”

I'm not sure I can trust him.

Hmm. But if true, I wonder who started that rumor in the first place. I thought it was Tipper or someone.

Poor Jackson4Gore. What will he do now?

Hes saying its not true, dunno if it is or not. If Gore wants to run, cool, if he doesnt, thats also cool, either way, if Kerry and Gore are both in the race, I pick Kerry.

I feared this.

We may have to stage an "intervention".

I am not particular keen on Gore after some of the stuff Ive learned, plus I think he wasnt a good candidate, Kerry yes got less percent than him but Kerry also made inroads and I just like Kerry better.

Doesnt suprise me. If it turns in to Hiliary vs Kerry, I'd say Kerry can win but he'll have a tough road ahead, you know that would make the meanies in GD head spin if that happened, if it came down to those two.

tear Hill apart. Personally I'm a bit nauseated by her courting of them of late.

Pretty sick, there was another thing too, I forget what. She knows they wont like her, so she should be herself.

Though I still probably need to give her the same chance I gave John to win me over.

but I like John so much more.

Although Hillary is probably bright enough, she's only had a few years in the Senate. But the important thing is whether she's got what it takes to win. How many blue-collar-union-type dems might abandon ship rather than vote for a woman? I found from working with a few of them on the campaign that they are more resistant to some of the more non-traditional ideas. It all comes down to electability; we just can't lose another election to the repubs.

I think the best candidate last time around for that would been Gephardt, he seems to talk their language, I like him for that, I dont know what kinda candidate, he would have made though, I like him but I dont see young people being energized by him, thats not his fault though, most young people are social liberals but more economically free market, Gephardt inspires the more social moderate and more economically liberal, I am an all around liberal democrat with a touch of everything.

It'd be long,hard fought battle, but Kerry would come out on top, I think.

I think we need a challenge as to which Dem can go to the most Senatorial and Congressional races in '06 and elect the most Dems. Whoever wins, gets the MSM seal of approval for frontrunner to a race that won't even start for 20 months or so.

Honestly, this is just too early. (But fun. I understand that. But geez, I can't take it seriously yet. This is what pundits do in order to justify drawing a paycheck in an off year.)

He has like a 30% approval rating. He just looks evil.

to be blunt.

He also looks like the fucking Penguin

Did you see the VP debate where he kept speaking into his suit like he was trying to hide? Just like a liar not to look us in the eyes.

Halliburton questions TWICE! Evil, evil, oily man.

:).

Also through marriage to Lynn, maiden name "Lucifer."

:).

bwahahahahahaa

You can't call her a lesbian, but you CAN call her a selfish hedonist.

Mary Cheney and Maya Keyes will get married in the great state of Massachusetts!

Great but Mary already has a life partner with Heather Poe.

The age difference is a little weird too. I just had to riff on "selfish hedonism," being in Illinois and all.

Memo to Alan Keyes: Yes, I know we voted overwhelmingly to send Barack Obama far away (to DC) rather than you. Counterintuitive as it may seem, that doesn't mean we dislike him and want you to stick around. Quite the opposite. Please leave now.

Maya can stay though. She's cute!


Oooh, wait til Corsi hits Massachusetts. He's gonna WISH he was as popular as Keyes!

She strikes me as just as evil as her parents. Hellspawn, in other words.

She's a total sellout.

to laugh is when Edwards was listing all of the evil votes that Cheney had. The best one was that he voted against funding for the Meals on Wheels program for elderly people. That was funny yet very sad.

thats probably why he voted against it. He also voted against freeing Nelson Mandela from jail. Yeah Unka Dick probably loved the Afrikanner government a lot.

his evilness.
