Gore FTW - #1 Feels Better than #3

So, old Al's not looking so crazy anymore, huh? Daily Kos noticed that I had beaten out the heel nippers handily in a poll out of Detroit.

Never have I said so much so loudly as I have by saying nothing at all. I love it when a plan comes together.

You other candidates feel free to keep knocking yourselves out on the campaign trail. It's certainly fun to watch. With that, I'll reference the post that started this whole thing.

Time's almost up. Stay tuned.

Third Place Feels Just Fine

So some poll shows that I am in third place support-wise on the Democrat side. By simply doing nothing I have pulled ahead of Edwards. Seems my strategy is paying off. I haven't been in the limelight to make any stupid mistakes, I haven't spent any money, and I didn't have to participate in that ridiculous YouTube debate.

I think I like Politics 2.0.

When Green is Not Good - Darth Nader Returns

While FA wholeheartedly supports the idea of independents having a shot at the title, I also believe that the time for shenanigans and grandstanding has passed. (I'm looking at you, Nader.)

I nearly tossed my Organic Raisin Bran this morning when I saw this:

"Consumer advocate Ralph Nader says he's considering running for president, and accuses Democrats of trying to shut smaller parties out of the political process."

FFS. I can't imagine why we would want to keep you out Ralphie. It worked out so well having you around last time. BTW, no need for accusations, we're on the warpath (not that kind) this time. Last I checked, consumers are still being screwed left and right, so it appears you still have some other work to do.

Stupidity Round-Up

Geez, I take a day off and all hell breaks loose. Here are a couple of links to some simple-minded citizens who are apparently trying to make the case against free speech.

These guys are doing their feeble minded best to GoogleBomb the Draft Gore kids with a bunch of nonsense. Feel free to stop by and pay your respects. Be sure to use small words so as not to befuddle them.

Not to be outdone, these geniuses are turning racism into profits all the while pretending to be concerned citizens. Safe money says they have probably already spent their anticipated domain squatting proceeds on pork rinds and RC Cola. If you contact them please send all communications in Spanish. That is certain to cause their heads to explode and ruin the inside of their Klan hoods.

That seals it. GoreBama '08 it is.

They're On to Me

The kids over at AlterNet are getting warmer (no pun intended) about my plans for the future.

"I have never met Mr. Gore. I make no claim to any inside knowledge on this question. I have no idea whether he's gaining or losing weight.

But I think he's coming.

I think he's going to find it impossible to resist.

And I think progressives should get busy, right now, working to hasten the day."

Easy, fellas. All in due time. You ever been to a Stones show? They make you wait FOREVER before they come on stage and it's not all because Keith is passed out backstage. I'm working on it, and it's going to be big.

"Plus, you want to know the first thought that will spring into the minds of 90 percent of Obama supporters, the instant that Gore announces?

"Gore/Obama 2008.""

You're close, but "GoreBama 08" makes a better bumper sticker. I'm listening.

I Hear You

The time has come that I can no longer ignore the call of those who wonder why I haven't jumped into the race for the Democratic nomination.

People say I'm Crazy doing what I'm doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin

To those people I will simply say that I have made my intentions clear.

When I say that I'm o.k. they look at me kind of strange
Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game

Stay tuned.

I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round,
I really love to watch them roll

Maybe everyone else is in a race for second. I kid, I kid! You guys are great, really you are. GoreBama would make a great bumper sticker though. Just saying...
