Now that the thought of even considering voting Democrat has entered my mind, I was just curious who the faithful thought would be the better choice out of the two.

Gore. He's the most solid option on environment, war, corporations, etc.

They both stink :'(

I think GOre may win anything against Hilary. This is my opinion of course.

Gore is actually very, very solid. He has let his hair down and is being the man his shmucky handlers wouldn't let him be 6 years ago. If there is anything left of the environment to save, he might be the man to do it. Or at least acknowledge it. At least he can spell it.
We learn most from our failures, kids.

Since Gore is taking it so far, what about Gore vs Kerry?

I don't think kerry is even in the conversation.

By solid, are you referring to his density? :) or his utter enormity?

I like gore. He's made some great speeches in the past couple of years. A smart guy with strong principles, especially in the area of democracy, I think.

I dislike hilary. She's big money, business as usual, playing to polls...she seems like an automaton, and she's timid and bombastic all at once. No good.

First off, I've never liked Hillary, I've always thought she was as warm as a flagpole at -40. All of my suspicions that she is a power hungry snake from way back when Bill was chasing interns seem to have come true.

Second, I'm sorry to say but the majority of Americans are just not up to having a woman president yet. There are just too many idiots out there who can't see above the waist. I would vote for a woman President it would just have to be a very special individual. Otherwise the "Good Ol' boys club" on capitol hill would eat her alive.

Third, I voted for Gore once because I thought he was a good choice, and I haven't changed my mind.

(I do get a kick out of thinking of Bill as the "First Lady" lets just see how well that goes over with the interns)

Funny thing. Last night I dreamt I was with Kerry. First he was giving a talk on some bleachers, then we rode a public bus and talked to different people riding with us, then we were talking together in a public park. Whenever I asked if he could talk, he'd reply that he had nothing else to do. I was telling him about TT & PTT and our discussions here. The odd thing is that I had actually listened to Gore on C-SPAN earlier in the day, so I thought it strange that Kerry was in my dream.

Concerning Gore, his speech was ok, said some good things, but there was one thing he mentioned that we had discussed here (which I can't remember right now), but I had to raise the "stink" flag since I knew he had left out part of the story to make his point. Which just highlighted the fact that they all do that sort of thing. Interestingly enough, after listening to Gore, I found Bush a little later on making a speech as well and I noted something I felt was very important. In each case, both were surrounded by their supporters, but the Gore crowd was much more enthusiastic than the Bush crowd. I couldn't help but think the audience singing "Stand by your man" while humming "Your cheatin' heart".

@V - I can get above the waist, but I just can't seem to get past the sternum. %)

Rice?

Now I remember. Gore seemed to blame Bush for failing to use buses to evacuate people from NO before Katrina hit, but that failure would seem to fall on the mayor and governor, both Democrats.

^ the buck stops there.

^^ if I remember correctly, the mayor was begging for help from bush before the hurricane to get people out...

What does that tell you?

Barack Obama?

VP with Gore ?
clean sweep.

Gore/Obama '08 works too well for me...almost a sure sign of failure. I have met Hillary. She was the Guest of Honor at a private party I attended. She spoke extemporaneously very, very well. She is an intelligent person, and, to me, embodies many of the worst, most calculated insincerities of professional politicians. I don't trust her, and I would not support her against McCain.
