Interesting article in the London Telegraph … Apparently, some Democrats are still entertaining the idea of having Gore as the Democratic Presidential nominee. Not a bad idea if you are a Democrat. Gore is no longer perceived as the perpetually political and annoyingly partisan sidekick of Bill. He is a man in his own right. Gore has proven to be a force in business and on the world stage. And, frankly, he has proven to be right about a few things. I think he would be tough for McCain to beat.

But, how do you reconcile this as a Democrat? How do you tell all of the Obama and Hillary die-hards that their votes mean nothing? It is probably the smart move. But, is it really? Would it alienate too many voters? Or, would those same voters who cast votes for Obama and Hillary embrace such a change?

Addendum to this post….. I talked with one of my dear work friends and committed Democrats this morning… her analysis was “No way.  This would never happen.  BS.  People would revolt.”  There you go.
