Looks like Gore's endorsement may have nudged some folks off the fences and may spur some prominent people to start endorsing other candidates. Gephardt today is getting Rep. Jim Clyburn's endoresment. And Clark is getting the backing of Former Atlanta mayor and civil rights pioneer Andrew Young. Looks like some minority leaders are trying to blunt Gore's endorsement and tell minorities that Gore doesn't speak for them.

Hmmm...kinda strange for Gep and Clark to be getting endorsements after Dean has "sealed the deal". Maybe Gore's endorsement will backfire, let's not forget he is a LOSER.

The Clintons think anything having to do with the Democratic Party should go through them. Well the Democratic Party is bigger than the Clintons or anyone else. There needs to be some housecleaning in the party beginning with the Clinton puppet "Terry McAuliffe". I applaud Al Gore for showing that you don't need the Clintons permission to make a bold move. As for Gore being a loser. That loser received 51 million votes in 2000. Thats more than any Democrat in history.

McAuliffe is a more of a Gore puppet than Clinton. After Gore's endrosement, McAuliffe played it up saying it would make it difficult to beat Dean and said Dean will probably win. He is quite partial to Dean, this is very obvious. And of course Dean is Gore's guy, definitely not the Clintons. I agree though, McAuliffe's got to go but not because he's Clinton's guy.

I believe Dean is on record as saying the first order of business once he wins the nomination is giving McAuliffe the boot. As a republican I hope it isn't true; McAuliffe's inept running of the Dem Party is a joy to watch. It wouldn't surprise me to see Gore take the job.

D2bets.....I think this is a good thing for the Democratic Party. It needed something to shake things up. Will this backfire on Dean & ultimately Gore in '08? Only time will tell. I think Gore just got tired of being the Clintons "whipping boy". He has been in their shadow for 11 years. He feels the Clintons have left him out, concerning major decisions for the party. I wished he would do something for the hair. Did you see that?.....LOL

The Clintons didn't leave him out, he ran away from the,, which was the reason why he lost (or didn't win easily) in 2000. I think it was his choice and his shift that pulled him away from the Clintons.

No.....I'm saying they have left him out since the 2000 election. I think it was a mistake to distance himself from Bill Clinton during the 2000 campaign. In doing so he also distanced himself from the successes of the Clinton/Gore Administration. It is the past couple of years in which he has'nt been included

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> Just like when Bill ran for Gov. in Ark. he said he will never run for Pres. while gov in Ark. but out of the goodness of his heart,answered the call of a grass roots campign "People for Clinton " (or some shit).That he and his phoney cronies staged and put together and organized behind the scenes to make it look like it was huge draft Clinton movement.....Hillary is in the process of doing the same thing with the "slip and fall artist" himself working behind the scenes.

The Clinton camp's anti-Dean blitzkrieg had one longtime Clinton watcher scratching his head. "If the Clintons want the Dems to lose next year so Hillary has a shot at an open seat in '08, they should be happy that Dean looks like a sure loser," he told NewsMax on background. "If that's the strategy, they should be boosting Dean, not bashing him."

Meanwhile, an organization formed to draft Sen. Clinton into the presidential race announced plans this week to launch an advertising blitz in New Hampshire urging Granite State Democats to write in Sen. Clinton's name in the state's Jan. 27 primary.

HillaryNow.com organizer Bob Kunst told the New York Sun he plans to run 60 television commercials in three New Hampshire cities this week on Sen. Clinton's behalf. Though the commercials won't be expensive prime-time productions - they're slated to run after midnight on CNN's Headline News channel - it's not clear how Kunst was able to finance such a substantial media buy.

Kunst told the Sun he is encouraged that Mrs. Clinton, who has denied she wants to run next year, has made no effort to shut him down.

Patriot........Kunst is leaning on a broken stick if their hope is that because Hillary hasn't asked them to stop the draft, she wants to run. Draft Gore held on to the same notion. IMO Al Gore & Hillary Clinton have '08 in their sights not '04. The biggest reason for this is IMO they know in their heart of hearts that if nothing major happens, George W Bush cannot be defeated in '04. Of course they would never admit it. But do you really think they would wait 4 years if they thought they could win it next year? I don't.
