Welcome to Gore Obama '08, yet another premature tiresome, candidate diary!!!
Why AM I writing it then? Because woke up this morning and said...I will write a diary entitled Gore Obama '08....and so far I have not been able to stop my self.
First let me get to the real heart of the electoral matter, the true purpose.....or as we like to say in kostown......my point.

'08
So....waddayathink? Is it euphonious?
Is it electable, euphoric, exciting, elegant, elephantine, elixiry, excellent, ecstatic and eminently doable?
You betchya! It make my frikkiin toes curl and my cowlick stand up!!!
Am I trying to dis Obama by putting him in the second spot??? NOT ON YER LIFE BUNKY! jes speakin my mind!
I think Gore Obama '08 is the perfect ticket
Why? ..................................................wait, which one of you smartass's asked that?
oh it was me.....
Required Substantive Portion
Al Gore, experienced Statesman and politician, knows the inner workings of the power game, but has spent enough time outside of it in the last six years to escape its pervasive influence. Personal ambitions of the Presidency stolen by........ugh.....you know, THOSE People. Rededicated to public service after a period of self examination and a lack of depilation, he determined what exactly was the most pressing issue facing our country and the world....and made the right choice. Still connected to the beltway, but not beholden.
Unlike others in the heart of the electoral game, he has had the chance to step outside the bubble and adjust to REALITY.
More:
Global Warming
ROCK SOLID ELECTABILTY...he has already been elected!
New found charisma and fire
Rock Solid Name Recognition
Rock Solid Accomplishment and knowledge
Rock Solid Support from all sectors...finally someone the left of the left can get behind, one of the reasons An Inconvenient Truth was so important. It IS NOT just more business as usual....Voting for Gore is voting for someone who frikkin gets it. Record first time voters, record new or renewed voter registration. SOMETHING TO VOTE FOR!!! instead of just against. Here comes a metric fuckton of disaffected voters....DUCK! The hope for their future will bring out the youth vote, especially his superstar status. Positivity, change, a breath of fresh air, (hahaha) for American politics
Rock Solid Staff. People, the best people will beat down his door.
Rock Solid Funding...Only Hillary has a hope of out raising him. He will have an instant war chest.
Tipper!
Rock Solid Record on Iraq
So.........
DU-UUUUH!!!???!!!
.
Now then....
Add Obama
Rock Solid Rock Star...with substance!
Rock Solid Record on Iraq.............................................BINGO! The whole ticket was anti Iraq from the beginning, have at it Wingnuts!
All the other good stuff about him that people will point out in the comments!
Complementary demographics.
If I say more I undercut my position that he should be veep and not #1!!! But the only serious objection to him is lack of experience. Give him 8 years as an ACTIVE VP, using some of the new powers that Cheney has given the Office...and we are talking a Rock Solid 16 YEAR DYNASTY!
Okay..WHO is gonna beat these guys?
Which front runner or dark horse from the Republicants has a snowball's chance?
Add in 21 Republicant Senators up for re-election....with some pretty heavy hitters getting ready to retire. It is nearly certain we will be able to increase our majority in the Senate. Same with the House, though that is more optimism than fact for me, i haven't looked closely enough at the 435 races!
My point.
We took charge, we are in the majority and as soon as we get the spine to stand up to Bush on Iraq/Iran effectively Bush is a lame duck extraordinaire.
We have won, we will continue to win.
Throw off the shackles of the past six years, stop fearing what 'they' will think of us, stop fearing what Fox Noise will think of us, realize that public opinion is on our side stop fearing, period, and ACT.
Defund the war ....we DO support the troops
As The Plame Treason plays out....call to Impeach Cheney....and Bush if you are so inclined.
Write supportive e-mails encouraging Investigations, spine, and action to your Representative and Senators and contact the media.
Contact your Congressmembers
How to write effective letters to Congress.
FAIR's Media Contact List
Faxes are most effective alsofreefax
ACTIVISM
Protest Guide
And support the Candidates of Your Choice, the candidates who will win...the leaders who will change the World in a positive way.
For me?
