Gore Endorses Hillary - How Would You React?
Not an unreasonable scenario. I would argue it's more likely than not.

What would your reaction be?

2. I would only hold my nose mentally as I voted..
..rather than actually go through the physical motion.

15. She's the likely nominee
and he could even endorse her while the race is still in question.

26. What makes you think Gore will endorse her?
What about Al Gore makes you think he would endorse HRC? They didn't get along very well during Bill's years.

27. He'll almost certainly endorse the nominee
And there's a chance he might earlier to buy some influence, though that's less likely.

9. Do you mean before the primaries or after?
Because, I'd react differently to before, than to after.

And I'd argue that while he almost certainly will endorse her after the primaries, he slmosst certainly won't, before.

14. Yeah. After the primaries he'd probably suck it up like the rest of us for the nominee.

12. I dont think he'd endorse before the primary, but if he does
I'm fine with whatever he says. And it wouldn't effect my vote.

13. He has his opinions and I have mine
As long as he keeps championing reason and working to save the Earth he has my support and good wishes. I will still vote my own mind though. He doesn't think for me. That would kind of go against the very thing he is championing. Reason.

17. I'd lose respect for Al Gore.
You were the one arguing that Hillary Clinton cost Gore the 2000 election, why do you think he'd endorse her?

19. Gore will endorse whoever wins the Dem nomination
I doubt he'd endorse her before the IA Caucuses.

30. With a sigh...

That he has slipped back into the insanity and insignificance he had in pre-2000, ..

Then a tear would slip out of my eye remembering his birthing of consciousness during 2002 and those fantastic truth laden speeches he gave...and how he is now lost...like our arctic ice sheet.

31. Gore is NOT going to endorse Hilliary, he isn't endorsing ANYONE

Last week, he announced he is not endorsing any candidate which has given many pause to think that he IS going to run.

32. Before or after the primaries?
If before the primaries....utter disgust.

If after....I'll assume he's holding his nose, just like me.

33. Decide that I was suckered to believe the "New Gore" was worth a dime.
Vote for McKinney.

Now, Giuliani and Bloomberg endorse Hillary - How would you react?

41. Reading the first three words of your header...
my heart was in my throat.. then I felt better as I read on.

I guess my reaction would be, my heart in my throat.
