April 25, 200818 yr I'm an ardent Barack Obama supporter and would vote for him as president, but this might make a little sense: Even as Hillary Clinton trails Barack Obama in pledged delegates, the popular vote, and number of states won, she has made it clear that she plans to stay in the race for the nomination. All of which brings me to this logical conclusion: It is time for Barack Obama to drop out... http://www.slate.com/blogs/blogs/trailhead/archive/2008/04/24/drop-out-obama.aspx?GT1=38001
April 25, 200818 yr I think the best bet for the DNC would be to declare Obama/Clinton in deadlock and select Al Gore as the presidential nominee. Gore then picks Obama as his running mate. They would destroy McCain and possibly lock up the White House for 12-16 years for the Democrats.

April 25, 200818 yr Interesting theory. But I'm not sure if Obama supporters who have thrown wads of cash his way would take too kindly to him stepping aside...

April 25, 200818 yr I don't think Gore would take it, plus I think would offend plenty of Hillary and Obama supporters even more by giving it to a third party who wasn't even seeking the nomination.
April 25, 200818 yr The republicans are the weakest they've been in 20 years and he has a great chance to be president this year. Why throw it away? You never know what's going to happen so he should strike while the irons hot.

April 26, 200818 yr Gore would crush McCain. Maybe. Would definitely be interesting. I think Gore would take alot of heat defending the Inconvenient Truth and it's innacuracies.
April 26, 200818 yr Maybe. Would definitely be interesting. I think Gore would take alot of heat defending the Inconvenient Truth and it's innacuracies.A cold, early winter would doom a Gore bid for the presidency. :lol: Future historians will marvel at the fact that Bill Clinton managed to be elected twice with a huckster like Al Gore as his running mate. I would love to see Democrats throw Obama and Clinton under the bus and draft Gore as their nominee at a brokered convention. The result would make the McGovern candidacy look competitive in comparison.
April 27, 200818 yr I could really see this happening at the DNC, I have felt this for sometime. He would ride in like the Knight in shinning armour! I personally think the democrat party is on the edge of self-destruction. I really really think Obama and Hillary will put the finishing touches on it. Obama is not electable. I hate to say it but Hillary is right. She has won the key states that you have to have in the General Election. Did anyone read what Sharpton said about if the Superdelegates give to Hillary at the DNC? They are going to take to the streets and not support the Dem. party. So what they are going to support the Republicans? (doubtful) Sounds like a threat to me but no intentions to support another party.
April 27, 200818 yr I agree. Gore would crush McCain. Gore couldn't beat Bush, don't think he could beat McCain either. The only thing he's good at is making a complete fool of himself.
April 27, 200818 yr I feel like, due to the fact that Bush is a Republican, all the top conservatives (although I don't know who) have decided not to run, and we have wound up with a not-so-conservative candidate. On the other hand, the Dems realize how easy it should be to beat an R and both Obama and Hilary are so anxious to become President and they don't want to miss out on this golden opportunity so they may be hurting their party.
April 27, 200818 yr Gore couldn't beat Bush, don't think he could beat McCain either. The only thing he's good at is making a complete fool of himself. I'd say he is more than competent at ticking you off :lol: Gotta give him credit for that. But I agree, I don't see this Gore taking the nomination happenning.
