Oh man, oh man, oh man. Where the hell is Al Gore when you need him?

The most qualified & knowledgeable. The most experienced. And, he won't touch it with a ten foot pole. He knows damn well Americans aren't ready for the sacrifice & the harsh truth.

I guess Americans really do get the politicians they deserve.

3. Yes, our candidates are great, when compared to the Repos. Can't argue with that.
Kind of sad really.

4. I don't know why he'd want to leave a good business and less stress
and take on the mess of this country in 2009.

I wouldn't blame him a bit if he didn't want to.

5. Some reporter once said that we get the government we expect...
After seven years of hell, it's pretty clear that Democrats STILL expect to kiss Republican ass.

6. I can't trust a candidate who likes Bon Jovi.
Al Gore is on record as liking Bon Jovi.

Al Gore: Wrong on New Jersey hair metal, Wrong for America.

8. he had his chance to run in both '04 and '08 and passed on it
he made his decision and I'm satisfied with the candidates who did decide to make a run.
