I wish wish wish he had won in 2000. This country and planet would be a far better place. Running now is just a mistake.

The time for this conversation was at least a year ago. If you don’t have the backing and staff set up for a run by then you should not be thinking about tossing your hat in the race now.

Al Gore needs to go away. He had his chance and blew it. We need Al Gore like we need heartburn.

Seriously? Who are these insiders? On the positive side, both Al and Hillary are the same age, in case anyone wanted to make hay about Hillary’s age, but for some dumb reason not Al’s or Bernie’s.

On the negative side…who the fuck are these insiders? I don’t buy it. Don’t ask me why…I just don’t believe that’ll ever happen. And I’m not sure that this is his best way to get back into politics.

Like Lindsay Graham though, he could have a rotating First Lady. No more Tipper…or did he ever get that divorce? I know he separated from her years ago.

He is one pompous ass, no personality, horrible candidate. He lost his own state in 2000, or FL would not even have mattered. And then he abandons support from Bill Clinton, what a buffoon. If Bill Clinton had been running against W Bush in 2000, he wins in a landslide. Yet this clown lost.

Not to worry, I see no chance of this happening, click bait.

Note to Buzzfeed- Mark Halperin drunkenly claiming he wasn’t wrong when he said Al Gore would be a great candidate for the Dems last year does not count as ‘inside sources’

I’m calling BS on this. He has no intention after 16 years to run again.

This just goes to show how nervous some people behind the scenes are getting about Hillary’s chances – so they are floating names – Biden, Gore – is Kerry next? Is there anyone else we haven’t considered???

Maybe we can also get an update on Jesse Jackson’s campaign. I wonder if Gephardt has an exploratory committee to announce. Maybe Bill Bradley has another cycle left in him. We could just exhume FDR and run his corpse.

They got a divorce and I think it was because he cheated on her with someone at a massage parlor. I read something about it.

Same for Biden. He’s not presidential material anyhow, just another sold out fascist dolt, and too old to think straight (I don’t’ think Biden has ever thought straight, only crooked like the rest of them).

Jerry Brown, California, or any other Democratic governor of a blue state, none of whom want to run either…

We do not need a democrat clown car too. It could happen.

It is almost like the good old boy club can’t stand to see a woman POTUS.

Please stop. There is no way in hell Al Gore would put himself through this again.

Joe Lieberman (frantically waiving his hand): “Over here, over here!”

EDIT: Oh, how embarrassing; you meant a Democrat.
