Don't suppose the station gave you a money back guarantee you can cash in when Al still isn't running 2 weeks from now?

28. And vote in the DFA poll :Gore LEADING in DFA Poll, as a Write-in!
As posted by garybeck at http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x2115781

email from DFA this morning

Dear,

Our challenge to Al Gore: Jump In or Drop Out!

Something surprising is happening at Democracy for America; former Vice President Al Gore is leading the race for the DFA Presidential endorsement -- as a write-in candidate.

Voting is still open until November 5 at midnight, and there is plenty of time for any candidate to win. All your candidate needs is your vote right now:

http://www.DemocracyforAmerica.com/PulsePoll

Despite the fact that Al Gore has not announced that he will run and wasn't even included in the endorsement poll, DFA members have seized the power and written him in. With over 65,000 votes cast so far, the time has come for Vice President Gore to make a decision.

The clock is ticking. We are deep into the 11th hour. There are fewer than 90 days until the first votes are cast. And filing deadlines to be on the ballot start closing in just days.

You deserve to know. Is Al Gore in or out?

Together, we are the boots on the ground that knock on doors, make phone calls, and recruit new supporters whether advocating for the next president or electing Governor Howard Dean to Chair the Democratic National Committee. DFA members are working to take our country back and the DFA endorsement is worth more than just words to the candidate that wins.

Vote for your candidate now:

http://www.DemocracyforAmerica.com/PulsePoll

Of course, this is not an ordinary endorsement poll. All voters are asked for their top three choices. And in the end, only an announced candidate can win the DFA endorsement. That means this will be the first poll in the nation that can accurately report both the remarkable support Al Gore has in the progressive grassroots AND which announced candidates earn that support if he never jumps in.

When we announce the results on November 6th, one year from Election Day, everyone will be watching.

Don't keep us waiting, Mr. Gore. It is time for an answer.

Arshad Hasan
Executive Director

11. Al Gore’s Golden Opportunity
Al Gore’s Golden Opportunity

By Arthur I. Cyr

Scripps Howard News Service

``Environment Al" Gore is riding high, including growing global media prominence. The Nobel Peace Prize honoring his efforts follows two Oscars for his global warming documentary, `An Inconvenient Truth'. This environment of celebration is fueling political speculation.

Gore has explicitly denied interest in running for president again, and that may be true. However, he has not absolutely ruled out a 2008 White House bid, and he has refrained from asking active boosters to shut up shop.

Even if Gore no longer has that requisite intense White House hunger, he would be a fool to rule himself out. Political weather, like the real kind, can change very quickly. More big news on the global environmental front could dramatically shift the winds in his favor.

If Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama suddenly sinks, or another contender suddenly surges, there could be a Gore opening.

Mr Gore, with the obvious , for acting to defend the Constitution, you are seeing just how big an opportunity you have to take the lead and keep it, all the way to the end of your second term of office as President.

Go for it ...

Thank you.

14. DU is a discussion forum. All that matters to me is that I will work day and night ...
... to see him be President, and I think it likely many DUers will do the same.

Thank you,
Bob

18. No Doubts Here
He's the one I'll support, 110%!

No wavering.

Doesn't mean I won't criticize him once he's President, but I certainly won't regret my decision to cast a vote for him.

I am 100% certain that I won't feel that way about Queen Clinton however.

15. I just applied my "DRAFT GORE" bumpersticker on my car this weekend.
Edited on Mon Oct-22-07 08:44 PM by mod mom
I have no other bumperstickers but when I went to put one on hubbies car, I couldn't decide whether to replace the "ROCK AGAINST BUSH" or "FUW" (which was handed to me on a frigid January day while protesting a Bush visit, so it has sentimental value). I ended keeping both and placing the new one below his spoiler.

Thanks for the link!

Since the fate of Florida's primary delegates is up in the air at the moment.
