1. What is it that Bloomberg helps Gore with apart from Money?
Just curious.

6. I understand.....But I'm just asking for your opinion......

I actually want to know what folks think Bloomberg brings to the table aside from Money.

19. Bloomberg was a serious democrat until he ran for Mayor!!
Bloomberg only changed to rethug because the feild was filled with dems!!

Bloomberg is still a democrat...remember he begged Gore to run at the Tribecca film festival!!

9. I Think That Would Be A Great Ticket.
Edited on Wed Jun-20-07 05:22 PM by OPERATIONMINDCRIME
I've never had any ill will towards Bloomberg, but I was surprised to find how progressive he is and how long he had been a Democrat for. I was fascinated by all that I've read from him today.

I think Al and him would make a spectacular ticket; with the caveat being bloomberg would have to officially register as an official Democrat again, of course.

11. Actually, I could live with that.
Al Gore is the ONLY human being that I would give my unwaivering support to.

Bloomberg is my mayor, here in tinytown, and except for a couple of REALLY dumb things (stadium, GOP convention) he's been pretty quiet and low-key.

Not the best of ticket possibilities, but I think they wouldn't be beholden to corporate interests QUITE as much as all the others.
