LOL!!! Now thats a losing ticket for sure. Gore is a Joke. I'm sure Osama would like gore on his ticket so they could raise taxes off of Gores warming fantasy.

"Nobel peach prize"???

Somehow I doubt that came out of Obama's mouth. Haven't the interns at ABC gone back to school by now?

There will be no Obama administration so who cares.

Mmm, Nobel Peach Prize... *salivates*

Gore's "warming fantasy"? You, my friend are the one living a fantasy!

An Obama-Gore ticket (or an Obama campaign with significant Gore involvement) would shred apart any Republican ticket that ran against it. Too bad the Democrats are going to be so stupid as to bypass this possibility in favor of Bush II - Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Gore has a following on the far left, but he would doom and already doomed campaign. Gore's pathetic attempts to brand global warming as undoubtedly man made with the oh so convincing 'consensus' is sad and will blow up in his face. Consensus means nothing in the world of science and engineering and there are just as many scientists who disagree with Mr. Gloom and doom as those who have come to a 'consensus'.
As far as the Swift Boat thing? OH please, whine me a river. The dems cannot stand to have their own tactics used against them and cry foul while doing the exact same thing. Funny, you'd think if the Swift Boaters were lying the empty suited Kerry would have sued for liable and slander... so apparently, there's a hint of truth to what they say. Odd that the often promised and never delivered records of Kerry never were produced, huh?

Why do people even bother taking to osama obama. He has not class and does not even cover his heart with his hand when hear the pledge. It is most likely because he follows the koran and wants to destroy America, just like the loser gore. Why doesn't Gore debate those who say humans never caused global warming. BECASUE HE KNOWS HE IS FULL OF MUSH AND HATRED FOR AMERICA!!!! GWB

A Obama/Gore ticket would be the same as a Junk Science/GW ticket!.... both have no experience with the truth and no credibility with realiity!

Getting "Swift-Boated"?
I guess they mean telling the truth about yet another cranky sore-loser.
I never understood why Kerry had such a problem with people telling the truth about him......

Then the conservative prayed on his kness "Oh PLEASE YES! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Obama and Gore in '08!"

Yeah, this article isn't very well written.

"Obama laughed that the voter would have made a good campaign manager."

Must have been an interesting laugh.

Are all these comments from the Bush kool aid drinkers? I guess so.

This one isn't from a Bush kool aid drinker, but the Democratic Party better hope it doesn't nominate Hillary or Obama, at least if we want to win the general and hold the Congress. We need a unifier who can work on both sides of the aisle to pass Democratic priorities while not selling the countries soul. That unifier is Joe Biden.

Warming IS a fantasy if you assert HUMANS are causing it.

Sponkos is the perfect example of how that Obama/Osama gaffe by Romney was carefully calculated and evil. This is how they win. They prey on your fears, your prejiduce and your hate. They use the worst traits of you to distract you while they gather wealth and the power to gather more.

"having won the Nobel peach prize ...."; yes, I'd say!

Well I wasnt sure about Obama but now I am! Holy Mackel Andy!

Waleeg...you're really Bob Dylan..right?

How does a Romney/Huckabee ticket sound ? I'd say ti would be a winner.

Gore getting a Nobel prize for narrating a dubious film is so pathetic as to be beyond belief. What a disgrace.

Davis Guggenheim must be so tired of people giving "his" Academy Award to Gore.

Reply to "Just the facts":

About your article link as "proof" to the "warming fantasy" comments....

You mean to tell me you had to find an article dating back to last June and with data only covering 400 years (which is not geological time scale) as your "proof"?? Me thinks you need to study Earth Science 101 again. :)

"They ain't gonna do no Swiftboatin crap on me, Bro." Yeah, cuz he was never in the military, he received a 4-E deferrment for having ears the size of an elephant, and a brain the size of a flea. If the Swiftboaters lied, why didn't Kerry sue them?

Obama has to come clean on how he got 1.6 million for his mansion and has to tell us his deals with the Iranian businessman slumlord in Chicago.
Also he must tell us if he's a muslim or not.
Sharia Law says that the son of a muslim is a muslim for life.

Why do people keep perpetuating the MYTH that Gore won an Oscar? He did NOT win an Oscar. The Academy Award went to the producer of that silly documentary, not Gore.

Obama would be best president to follow Bush for this country.

osama obama and the peace prize idiot.

what a pair---and the demo's will lose big time

by the way for "BIG AL" -----

I'M MOTHER TERESA !!!!!!!

Let's get real here. Why would a former two-term vice-president want to aspire to be VP again a decade and change later? The whole notion is laughable. Gore is an honorable man and now Nobel laureate who holds sway from a global bully pulpit far more prestigious than anything like maybe holding a vice-presidential role, once again.

Anyone who thinks Gore would be dumb enough to consider a secondary role as a wannabe longshot on a Democrat ticket next year simply has no clue as to how politics works.

Third time lucky? I hardly think so. Meanwhile, he owns the bully pulpit when it comes to the issues he most cares about.

LOL - I can't believe all the ranting back and forth from Democrats and Republicans about who will be our next president. It appears to me that the more mud you sling in the opposite direction, the more insecure your are about your own beliefs and choices. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone would just make the best choice for them without trying to make their choice the "right" one by putting others down?

Remember that your words define your own character and not anyone elses.

Peace

"Obama admitted that everyone was traumatized by what happened in the 2004 with Senator John Kerry"

LOL. Some American veterans came out and told the truth about John Kerry. Looks like Obama has something to hide too.

"Experience and youth?" ahahaha

It's more like "wacko and pure nutcase!"

Don't like either Obama or Gore, but I can see that putting Gore as a Sec of State would be a very good move for him. And as a Nobel Prize winner, Gore would have some pull in the job.

"A woman wanted to know how Obama would avoid getting swift boated and being 'turned by the Republicans into a minstrel show.'"

Wow....amazing. Already these die hard leftists are calling Republican attacks on Obama "racist". Amazing.

I'm sure even the socialist Hillary would get a laugh out of a barack hussein obama and algore ticket!

As a Republican, I may very well vote for Joe Biden if he is the Democratic nominee

Actually, a couple of comments.
This Obama/Osama/Muslim crap has got to stop. He has explained he's not a Muslim, so get off your butts and find some new slander, because this one is getting old and only reveals your own sheeplike stupidity. I believe this is the sort of attacks some of the die hard leftists are referring to. If you have to make up something to attack the guy with, obviously you don't have anything substantial.
This pathetic bitterness about Gore winning the Nobel prize...what the heck is that all about? Aren't you the same people who say get over Bush winning the election in 2000? Take your own advice. He won. stop whining. get over it.
Finally, I've noticed a few people here speaking out in favor of Biden. Why isn't he doing better? I've been really impressed with him. Much more than the front runners.

I have never voted for a Democrat since G. McGovern but,I am seriously considering voting for Obama. Now I hear this. Gore strikes me as a condescending snob and a crock. He belongs in Hollywood or Europe, anywhere outside the Government of the United States. Please, Barack, I hope you don't mean that. If you are for a new direction, Gore should be retired with all the Bushes and Clintons.

John from Des Moines are you SERIOUS, you would vote for Joe Biden, who is in a statistical tie with Steve Colbert(comic)! Nice job John

Thank GOD for the Swift boat vets, many *highly* decorated, men of honor speaking the FACTS about John Kerry.
Spared us the election of that pompous condescending anti-military baffoon. Hopefully he will lose his senate seat as well. He deserves to lose it.

Obama Hussien???

No need for anyone to get the facts out on the guy. he provides them himself quite well, He speaks like the inexperienced neo-liberal he is. Obama fans? Fuggedaboutit. Your dreaming.

Hillary has it in the bag.

Advice?

Get used to the initials FDT in reference to the Presidency.

Oh, and Gore won an oscar. That proves that he has star power for the starstruck democrats.He sure has been busy since inventing the internet and introducing us to Global Warming, which by the way, did not exist until Bush took office. Don't forget the dawn of terrorism that was started the day Bush took office. Gore almost stopped Bush's remote control hurricane , but he forgot about Halliburton's explosives on the levy. But Gore couldn't stop Bush's latest attempt when he single-handedly took a flamethrower to California

DEMOCRATS: please wake up and smell the coffee> Thankfully the DREAM bill was defeated(amnesty). Also dont you all realize that ALL your candidates just want to tax and spend and subsidize everyone at successful peoples expense? Wake Up!!!

Just to prove my point good ole Charley Rangel is floating a new bill to increase taxes on families making 150-200 thousand and with an additional surcharge. Well excuse me for being educated and living the american dream thru Capitalism, not SOCIALISM.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD STOP MINDLESSLY FIGHTING WITH EACH OTHER WITH AN ARROGANT PRETENSIOUS TONE. WE ARE ALL PEOPLE, WE NEED TO RESPECT EACH OTHER. IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT ENOUGH YOU WILL REALIZE WE ARE ALL NOT SO DIFFERENT THAN YOU BELIEVE.

all this obama talk is hot air.

rodham will be the dem nominee.

obama is an unqualified simpleton who was a back bemcher in the IL senate till two years ago.

he had no accomplishments there.

just like hillary rodham is trying to pretend by living in the white house she had some kind of experience.

she has experience as the gov's wife working part-time at the ose law firm and being on the board of directors for the criminal enterprise known as wal-mart.

algore is nothing more than an overinflated toady. He is a JOKE in his home town AND state. He's a little rich kid that, if it weren't for daddy's money, would be the assistant manager at a discount matress roadside stand. History will show him to be an alarmist left-fringe lunatic, and a pouty loser. As for obama...as long as he's making the hildabeast cringe, I'm all for it.

Albert Gore can't even carry his home state in national election.....hahahaha

Obama, Obama, Who's Obama??

Just what this country needs, a &%$#& like Al Gore, that's going through menopause, making decisions.

Why would Al Gore even WANT to be Vice President again?

Gore was even more of a divider then Bill and Hillary.......and that was hard to do. Go for it, Obama, and watch your polling numbers plummet.

in the article, Obama does NOT say Gore will be his running mate. If fact, he insinuates that is not the case, but some other postion.

Can you Repubs read and comprehend the words, or do you just run everything through your "Republican translator" and hear what you want to?

Gore on the Obama ticket or stating he will be in his administation, is the kiss of death for Obama. Al Gore is a money crazy man, he is being protected by the media from any serious debate about his global warming caused by humans loonacy.

Obama has zero chance. Most of the bigots in this country are on the left. While Colin Powell could have won Obama would be slaughtered. As for Gore, he is both less than honest and less than sane. Even if his nonsense about global warming is true (which it isnt) does anyone on earth think that Russia and China would honor any treaty? It is revealing that the global warming crowd is against nukes

Hillary has it because of money and the MEDIA. Dan Rather attempted to plant a false story about Bush but what will be done to whoever gets the Repub nomination will be nothing compared to what the did to Bush. If they could get away with blaming Katrina on him they can get away with anything.

Harry Reid said the Cali fires were caused by global warming and Boxer said that if troops werent in Iraq the fires would be controlled. By the way can anyone imagine if Rudy had someone like Hsu associated with his donations. It would be headlines and lead off the news for two weeks.

Hillary is also more left wing than Gore or even Obama. She will destroy the economy with her taxes but the media will blame it on Bush.

Lee Tabin

Why wold Gore join a ticket with about zero chance or winning the nomination?

Why would Obama want Gore anyway? Who does Gore bring to the ticket .. besides the far-left Hollywood crowd (who are voting Democrat anyway).

Among the mainstream voters .. I don't think the Nobel Peace Prize brings that much credibility anymore ... most people understand it stopped being about 'peace' decades ago. The fact that it has degenerated to this big of a joke has got to be a bit embarrassing.

That poor Obama guy doesn't get out much does he?

Aside from being a full on socialist, now he's given us YET ANOTHER REASON not to vote for him.
What a maroon!

If Mike Ditka would have run for Senate in Illinois as he was thinking of doing, no one would even know who the heck Osama Obama is.

Roomney got it right. He is a terrorist, just a domestic one.

Is Obama still running?
Other than the Hollywood butt kissers who even knows what Obama stands for.

Best he could do is rub Hillerys shoulders and hope she throws him a bone as a VP nomination.

You're right, this is useless nonsense. We in Iowa will never give Obama or Clinton a win. Biden is the choice of Iowans.

A Obama/Gore ticket? Bring it on! That would be great news to the GOP! What a time we'd have with that mistake!

Wow, I'm really impressed with the level of discussion on the comment board. People are denying that the Republicans will use false attacks against Senator Obama in between comments that make false attacks against Senator Obama or try to link him to various terrorists because of the spelling of his name. Is that what makes me proud to be American?

What the hell is wrong with our country when a decent man who has been a devout Christian his entire adult life, has drawn bipartisan support and praise in IL and the US Senate for the legislation he has passed, and wants nothing more than to have America live up to its ideals again can get ruthlessly slandered by a bunch of people who won't even do the simple research to learn about his record.

My God it is time for a change in this country from this idiocy. Vote Obama or don't complain when our house divided fails to stand for anything any more.

Biden ....the biggest liar of them all

Terry S

shame they call it the Nobel peach prize ... Did Obama call it the Peach Prize or did ABC? Either way, it shows a lack of education.

makes all of the reporting suspect because of a typo or ignorance.

It is just propaganda --- or typical left wing socialized education coming to the forefront of the caliber of the reporters and the candidate.

Obama thinks the Oscar is more prestigious than the Vice Presidency?

Now I'm getting it.

TarHeel, what legislation has Osam, I mean Obama sponsored that has passed in the US Senate?

Get your facts straight before writing your hero worship psalms here.

Why doesn't Obama put his hand over his heart when he says the pledge of allegiance?

I can't find too many redeeming qualities in anyone's reporting when I read the Nobel PEACH prize!!!
Better go back to the drawing board if you want us to pay attention to anything you are writing.

Joe Biden is spiteful...someone look up the news tape when he laughed at Ashcroft saying 'haha my son is in JAG' and 'your son is in Iraq'... Despicable person.

America, we deserve so much better than this and certainly now we need it.

Excellent post from TarHeel, deserves a repeat:

What the hell is wrong with our country when a decent man who has been a devout Christian his entire adult life, has drawn bipartisan support and praise in IL and the US Senate for the legislation he has passed, and wants nothing more than to have America live up to its ideals again can get ruthlessly slandered by a bunch of people who won't even do the simple research to learn about his record.

My God it is time for a change in this country from this idiocy. Vote Obama or don't complain when our house divided fails to stand for anything any more.

Yet another reason NOT to vote for Obama. As if we needed more.

Grumble, grumble, grumble. Anger, anger, anger. Posts like these demonstrate how clearly we deserve the corrupt and disfunctional government that we have. Blah, blah, blah.

I love how the Dems are always the first to sink down to name calling and attacking their oponents, rather than simply learn to make their points and disagree. These bullying ways won't win over many.

Gore/Obama IS the winning ticket .

Just listen to all the righties.. the very mention of Gore Obama throws them into uncontrollable tantrums.

Why is everyone afraid of Gore?
Is it because he won the most votes in 2000 and you guys are scared he will win again?
Go ahead and call everyone you disagree more names. It just makes you look stupid and Mr. Gore a hero.

I love how everyone is praising Nobel Prize winner Gore, but currently dragging James Watson through the mud. The public is so fickle--what makes one scientist's (and I use that term very loosely) findings more truthful or accurate than another's? Although that was a rhetorical question, I'll hazard a response--it depends on how those findings make people feel inside.

Why was John Kerry "swift boated" one asks......get real, the dems NEVER rely on facts, just emotion.....Hey, Rangle wants a tax "surcharge" on the "rich" AND allow the Bush tax cuts to expire....ummmmm, sounds great! The flaw once again, don't rely on facts, only emotion. Will cost jobs and revenue. As for Gore and his Noble prize, why did Gorbachev get one but Reagan didn't? And Jimmy Carter? Please......a total joke that goes to show once again the Losers are Winners.

I will never forget a video that Rush showed on his old TV show of Billy and Algore walking into the HALL OF PRESIDENTS at Monticello as the Enlightened Algore asked the guide, "Just who are some of these fellas?" regarding the busts of the former Presidents around the hall. The guide and Billy looked at him in disbelief. The guide said, "AH, Thats George Washington, and that's Abraham Lincoln, etc...". Al, go read the last chapter of "Chicken Little". It was an apple, not the sky.

The Clintons control the Dem party entirely. Howard Dean was derailed by the Clinton press machine over a stupid yodel. Kerry was unelectable, which is the way the Clinton's wanted it, and why he received the Dem nomination. Clinton's wanted Bush to win. If Kerry won, his VP would run 8 years later, and that was Hillary's election. So, here we are. Biden gets no press at Hillary's bequest, and Obama has too many questionable beliefs to possibly win.

As for Gore's infomercial... We have data showing the Earth and Mars have been getting hotter, by the same percentages, over the last 50 years. We also know that during solar hot-spot and flare activities, which last hundreds of years, the earth traditionally gets hotter. Such hot-spots are happening now, and have been for 50 years. The fact that both Earth an Mars are tracking as getting hotter by percentage shows that it is a natural event, and not man made. Those of you who believe in Gore's theories should see what he wants you to do about it, what it will cost you, and where that money goes. Get a marker and write "Follow me to Al's wallet" on your cash. He'll get a kick out of it.

The ticket would have only been Gore/Obama and not the other way around. The way ABC swift boated Gore at the 2000 Democratic National Convention it should surprise nobody that they post this upside down drivel.

I was always dubious that the average IQ was 100. Judging by the number of responses I see on these politically charged blogs I am now convinced that I know in which political party the sub 100s reside.

fghk, please let the rest of us know how, on the first post on this blog calling Gore a joke, does not fall into the realm of "name calling" which you said (which the 100+ people know is false incidentally - - - nice O'Reilly Limbaugh-esque try though,) the "Dems are always the first to sink down to . . .?" Appears that the first incident of name calling came from a Republican to me but then I humbly must advise I DO fall into the 100+ category.

You have stated a very obvious lie. As one who actually HAS a degree in climatology (as opposed to meteorology who the whiners and haters like Hannity always cite,) I can tell you that Sponkos is incorrect calling global warming a fantasy.

I will say that we are not certain of the extent of Man's influence, whether it is akin to throwing a cup of gas on a lit barbecue, or whether it is akin to throwing it onto a forest fire, or somewhere in between (probably), but only an ignorant person who believes what they want from the ignorant people they want to listen to, without their own study, will make comments like Sponkos.

"You are only half as smart if you do not KNOW both sides of the issue." Try to learn both sides. Gore is okay. Doubtful if he would have taken as many of your liberties from you as the present administration. But, at least they made their cronies and buddies rich at your expense. If you like that kind of thing.

Oh, and the Obama and Osama intentional confusion thing? Good Lord(!) what kind of traitors are you folks? I have yet to see a 100+ IQ person do that, but that is probably the most un-American thing I have experienced in my 5 plus decades. Disgusting.

Wow, a lot of mouth-breathers on this comment board. Don't forget to empty your drool cups!

UP FRONT:I usually vote Republican,that said,GORE on a ticket would be the 2nd best thing that happened to the Republicans.(The best thing would be to pick Hillary as the Demo nominee.)That self assured paternalism ,that little smirk!Frankly I thought that Obama was the smartest and most erudite of all the candidates on the Democratic side.Remember Gore did not even carry his home state of Tennessee in the last election.We knew him!All the (campaign) money in the world does not make a fool a smart person ,or a leader!

Once again, many of you are losing sight of the BIG picture. Why does it matter that his name is one letter away from a known terrorist's? Is that the only validated "bad" thing you have to say? Why dont you educate your ignorance with factual knowledge of what the Sen. stands for and would like to fight for? If, then, you don't agree, simply vote another way. Have you any idea how ignorant you sound when all your comments focus on knit-picky, half-hearted, trivial attacks on a name given at birth? Get real, and get a clue.

Wow. Is Obama trying to lose? Gore is about half a millimeter away from being exposed as the biggest huckster and scam artist American politics has ever seen.

I can't believe how ignorant, moronic, and just plain stupid these global warming deniers are. Try reading some science books a little more and listening to Rush Limbugh a lot less. Oh wait that's right you can't read and the science is too complex for your tiny little mind to comprehend. Plus you think the world is only 6000 years old because that's what the bible told you. Don't pay any attention to scientific facts. It's much easier for someone with a low IQ to believe in ancient biblical fairytales and superstitious mumbo jumbo. So just go to your happy place where you can parrot all your conservative heroes and their big buddy oil industry propagandists who have our government and the republican party in their back pockets.

Human activity in the form of CO2 and methane emmissions most certainly are the cause for global warming! I'm just glad I won't be alive by 2100 when all of Greenland and half of Antarctica have melted and sea levels have risen by 50 feet. Enjoy your beachfront mansions when they're under 40 feet of ocean water

Greg, here's some science for you:

Water vapor dominates. It is responsible for 95 percent of the greenhouse effect.

Carbon dioxide, methane, nitrogen dioxide and other CFC's contribute only 5 percent of the effect. Carbon dioxide is the greatest contributor from this group at 3.6 percent. Carbon dioxide as a result of man's activities is only 3.2 percent of that.

That makes man's contribution to the level of CO2 in the atmosphere 0.12 percent.

We couldn't change the climate if we wanted to because water vapor dominates.

Romney/Huckabee vs Obama/Gore?

God help us it would be close and wouldn't really matter which schmucks won. I certainly wouldn't bother to vote for either slate; it's cold in November and why stand in line with a bunch of strangers at the beginning of flu season for that?

How did Obama get $1.6 million? Maybe by selling two best-selling books???

The blind leading the blind. This would be a real dream ticket for conservatives. Probably would never happen.

"How did Obama get $1.6 million? Maybe by selling two best-selling books???"

Hey anonymous. Obama sold the books long after buying the house.

Obama won't be "swiftboated" if he doesn't have anything to hide like Kerry did. Kerry's pr
