Al Gore Is Endorsing Barack Obama -- Watch it Live Here

An honest and sincere question here… Why? I could have seen months ago when we had what, 8 or so candidates. I could still have seen where Al tossed his hat as having some consequence even a few weeks ago. Look at the reception, the magnitude when either Teddy K. or Richardson decided to weigh in. But now? There’s one freakin’ candidate. Now you lend your support, Al? Against what, not voting at all?

I’m honestly curious… how does this matter one darn whit?

For future reference, if you have a disagreement with moderator actions or comments take them to ATMB or the Pit. My comments were not just due to your response to Happy Lendervender, but because of your disputing SkipMagic’s instructions. Continuing jerkish behavior by you in this thread, in any way, is not a good idea.

Well, if he did it before the nom, it would pretty much signify gang warfare between him and the Clintons. Apparently, he wasn’t up for that. So… well, he had to do it sometime, and it doesn’t really matter when, as long as it’s before the convention.

I think it’s mostly significant because it drops a big namer into a state the Dems are desperate to win in November. Edwards announced his endorsement in Grand Rapids, MI and Gore makes a stop in Detroit. Voters in Michigan who maybe feel the Democrats don’t care about them, suddenly feel a little excitement at having these big namers come here.

That’s my guess anyway.

Here you go, gaffa.

Cool, thank you.

In the supposedly strongest nation on the planet, the best we can do is Obama and MCcain. Great. Yes I’m crabby about the high gas prices but surely can find better people for office?
Maybe not… sigh.
