Would Gore take the nomination over Hillary?

One of the things that the pundits have been saying this week, is that these national polls show Gore at about 15%, nowhere near Hillary, and that's why he wouldn't enter.

I thought that would change if he actually did enter though.
 
I think he is the only one that could give her a run and his nomination over HillBillary would cinch the Presidency for the D Party, IMO.
 
I would likely vote for Gore over Romney, Guliani, Thompson, or McCain. I cant say the same about Hillary at this point.

who wants to bet Hillary is lining their pockets to say that? Gore is the only threat to her at this point. Obama just doesn't seem ready and Hillary will bitch slap the crap out of Edwards, should he ever put on his big boy pants and try to actually stand up to her.
 
Liberals getting giddy again.

Gore cannot not beat Hillary for the nomination .. and he knows it.

There are an awful lot of people on the left who will not forget his performance, or lack there of, and failures in 2000. The Nobel Prize is not going to change the minds of serious intellectual voters, as his winning an Oscar and Emmy did not change their minds.

Gore was one of only 10 democratic Senators to endorse the republican resolution endorsing the Persian Gulf War.

He says, “Now, back in 1991, I was one of a handful of Democrats in the United States Senate to vote in favor of the resolution endorsing the Persian Gulf War, and I felt betrayed by the first Bush administration's hasty departure from the battlefield".

He was upset because Bush stopped?

Is there any question of how he would have voted had he been in the Senate in 2002?

Gore has won prizes for making a movie, albeit an important movie about a very critical issue, which is why he won the Nobel.

They did not award him the Nobel for courage.

I agree they won't forget his 2000 performance. But I think there are just as many on the left (not to mention right and center) that are just as sick of the prospect of Bush/Clinton/Clinton/Bush/Bush/Clinton....

As for his quote on Bush Sr. stopping... I could not agree with him more on that issue.
 
I think most people remember him taking it all the way to the SCOTUS, which is as far as it could go. I don't think you are correct on this one. But heck it is only an opinion. I think that Gore, right now, is riding a wave of popularity that he has never had before and would quite likely give her a strong run for the nomination.

Well, as we have discussed before, I think that Gore today, is the best candidate.

I am unsure if he could overcome the Clinton machine in a primary. But he would be my choice.

He does indeed have that "American Idol" thing going for him now, but there are many on the left who remain unimpressed and who remember his rollover in 2000.

He appeals to a particular segment of liberals which accounts for his 15% showing.

I can't see it being a "rollover" when it went all the way to the highest court. Seriously. I think most people do not see it your way.

15% for an unannounced candidate is pretty strong.

He could take the nomination if he chose to.

Gore might earn my vote, but under no circumstances would I ever vote for Hildebeast.
