1. I deregistered as a Dem after Al Gore was left standing at the altar.
And, even if that was a puny gesture, it meant a lot to me.

It would be SO good to re-elect Al Gore. :)

4. I left the Dems after Bush v. Gore
It was mind boggling to me - that the Supreme Court would pick our
president. I hope Gore runs and wins in 2008.

My family has been solid Democrats ever since they came to this county.

I hope he runs, too. We should be so lucky. :)

8. How?
It says on the main menu for General Discussion:

POLL: Majority of Americans would vote Gore in 2008

But here:

9. It is deceptive and misleading
it suggests that your topic is regarding a poll taken that indicates a majority of Americans would vote for Gore in 2008, when in fact you're asking us if we think that would be the case.

An accurate title would be "POLL: Would a majority of Americans vote Gore in 2008?"

13. Except he's right.
A Majority of Americans WOULD Vote For Gore. I'm sure of it. It would be a fucking rout.

However, as for "misleading and deceptive" thread titles.. cough... I will defer to your obvious expertise. :patriot:

17. IF he ran, he'd win - no doubt about it - BUT...
...he's NOT gonna run. He has more important things to do. He's too busy.

18. I doubt it.
Gore is out of politics, it seems. And with all the big money following Cliton and Obama, would there be room?

19. So, are people's votes based on knowledge of polls, or truthiness?
If it's polls, I'd love to see them. If it's because you're feeling merry after watching the Oscars, well, have another beer! :toast:
