I've got it. I've figured out how Gore and Obama will be on the same ticket.
First Hillary will steal the nomination with super delegates. Then, Gore and Obama will form an independent ticket. How about that? Am I a dreamer or what?

3. Actually, Hillary is tromping all over the party...

That's why a new party or indie ticket might be necessary.

14. I am a democrat in theory. I do not let a corporate democratic party club tell
me who is the best "democrat" for the nation. I can choose whom I believe holds the real values of a real Democrat at heart. I don't think Hillary is that person. Thats doesn't mean others wont disagree. That's ok. I wont try to change any minds here.

4. I think it happens in a back room even before the convention
Edited on Thu Mar-20-08 05:50 PM by LSparkle
The DNC faithful (including the longtime Senators supporting Obama) are not going to let
this election slip away because of HRC's bloodsport politicking, and will come up with
this compromise even before August.

On edit: Meaning it'll be Gore/Obama running as Democrats, not independents.
