As for his...Damn, that is a large picture of Gore. As for his possible presidential run, I am not so sure how I feel about that anymore. Indeed, I am part of the "Draft Gore" internet campaign, but I don't necessarily think his running would be good for the country anymore. As an outsider to the process, I believe he has more influence, and thus his ideals about the environment and whatnot will be more paid attention to. I could be wrong here, and maybe only by running will the environment become a big issue again? On a final note, if he <I>were</I> to run, I would hope that he could adopt more issues than just the environment (as strongly as I feel about that, the country needs more than a one-issue man).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09420917785234309683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20834426.post-28615416023562547772007-10-04T02:12:00.000-07:002007-10-04T02:12:00.000-07:00We have very conflicting polls out there.

The latest <A HREF="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21038955/site/newsweek" REL="nofollow">Newsweek poll</A> shows Obama leads among likely caucus-goers. But <A HREF="http://americanresearchgroup.com/pres08/iadem8-710.html" REL="nofollow">ARG</A> shows Hillary has the lead among them. And <A HREF="http://www.time.com/time/politics/article/0,8599,1657478,00.html" REL="nofollow">TIME</A> shows Edwards leading the field. Who's right? Who knows?<BR/><BR/>But what I do know is that ABC News poll is worthless. Look carefully, they interviewed ALL ADULTS. Any election poll must interview at the very least, REGISTERED voters, if not likely voters.<BR/><BR/>By making that poll of all adults, they open it up to the millions of Americans who simply do not follow politics at all. You know, the <A HREF="http://people-press.org/reports/display.php3?ReportID=319" REL="nofollow">over 30% of Americans</A> who don't even know Dick Cheney is the Vice President. They may think of themselves as "Democrats", but they're never going to see the inside of a polling booth, and they probably don't know who Obama and Edwards even are.BruinKidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05729973963493183856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20834426.post-76467874717249038432007-10-04T02:10:00.000-07:002007-10-04T02:10:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.BruinKidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05729973963493183856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20834426.post-71619820777057022372007-10-03T23:54:00.000-07:002007-10-03T23:54:00.000-07:00hahaha, the idea that obama is "fizzling" when he ...hahaha, the idea that obama is "fizzling" when he is literally running tied/ahead in Iowa (the only poll that actually matters) is laughable. <BR/><BR/>oh, and everyone's fund raising goes down Q3- well, everyone except ron paul. i'd say w 350,000+ donors, the campaign is doing just fine.gabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287377253596719290noreply@blogger.com
