Geri, How convienient that you don't mention how the Hillary supporters are nasty, rude, racist and downright vengeful because she did not win/steal the nominiation yet! Obama supporters are calling the Clinton supporters just what they are: babies. If they were true democrats and supported whoever won the nomination then the Obama supporters would not be saying anything but thanks! All of you so called democrats who say they will vote for McCain are true Judases or just repbulicans in democrats clothing - either way you are all very scary people - I am scared for the US if the election goes to McCrazy because of your kind!

ok if he is going to support the billarys, he better not talk.. but i am sure the clintons have something on him too..
he is looking for his own recognition, all of these people have become so entangled into themselves, that they forgot about the American people
i am begining to sense so much dissapointment from the democrats,

and i think that we are so divided, thanks to the queen and king, that McCain and McBush won YET again

it works, Billary's trick and Rush L, tricks worked, after all Hillary a republican always a republican.

I think Gore is an excellent choice for speaking at the convention. His message is clear… and all he wants to do is help save our Earth. Who better than Gore to bring the real issues of the US failing policies to the forefront at the convention and set a new direction for our country and our new leaders? Clean energy, energy independence, no blood for oil and green, sustainable living are the only way we will ALL survive.

Go Obama! You can do it!

All Gore suffers from the same PR problem with the right wing as does his former boss, Bill Clinton; they're both smart, capable leaders who left no room for complaint from the republicans, other than (in Clinton's case) a private matter that should never have been investigated or made public in the first place, and had absolutely no bearing whatsoever on his actual job as president, which he exectued better than any other man in the last 40 or 50 years.

It's like Governor Ed Rendell of PA always says…"What was it you didn't like about the 90's? Was it the peace, or was it the prosperity?"

I want to know why this man is not over in China lecturing them about their carbon footprint? They are the planets BIGGEST polluter yet not one single word from Al Gore. All he does is lecture us over here in the U.S. to change our ways to “save the planet”. He won't start his crap over there because he can't make any money over there. If his silence about China doesn't prove he & all the other global warming alarmists are full of it, nothing does!

Who cares if Gore speaks? I won't be watching the DNC convention anyhow. I no longer trust or respect any of them.

Former lifelong Democrat…..now brand-new Republican!

NOBAMA!

We can do it together.

Another loser takes the podium!

Obama certainly revealed his dark side at the Rick Warren Forum. His equivocating answers and foolish statements left voters a clear choice!

McCain crushed him! It was the Commander in Chief versus the professor!

McCain 08!

——–
McCain cleary had gotten the questions beforehand. The old man had time to think.

Had it been a true cone of silence then he wouldn't have been as clear as he was.

The truth is coming to light.

Yes………

To Kathy, We elect a president to run our country. If his home life sucks(divorce or whatever) that is his private business. It wasn't one of Bill Clinton's campaign promises to keep his pants on. We all have made mistakes in the past. I would much rather have a president that has a divorce in his past instead of being linked to Muslims, Hate Churches, crime figures and does not believe in Christmas.

I just wants to say something for Mr. McVietcong comments, Instead of put J.M. back in the camp, why not Barack so he knows what it takes to be an American. Evidently he needs lessons in that along with his wife (doesnt she calls herself Jackie O. Please give me a big break!

You guys are funny—Gore couldn't win his own state of tennessee–
After all the bickering about how the election was stolen—Not only was it proved that he really lost –ABC or CBS recount—
All of this could have been avoided if he carried his home state–
He should count polar ice caps for the rest of his life and stay out of politics–

I will wager a bet that , he does not mention how much more Electric he uses now after all those $$$$ he spent ( ON HIS HOME )to save energey.

If he would shut his MOUTH THAT ALONE WOULD SAVE A LOT .

I'm so happy to hear that the Democrats are pulling out all the stops for this convention, it's gonna draw so much attention and build so much attention for us that there will be no stopping an Obama administration come January 2009!! This country needs to be reminded of how great things were under the last Democrat who ran it and by having Bill and Hillary Clinton and now Al Gore speak at the convention we're gonna do just that. Barack Obama's already a rock star, now let's show the country we really mean business! Obama '08!!! Let's win this thing!

Okay, now are you ready for this….Durring the Iran Contra scandal with Ollie North and then President Reagan….The same bank was issued a subpoena from the Federal Court System….We were to track back all bank transactions from Amon Lemon's (Iranian Guy) since his first transaction to the bank. Guess what wasn't part of the subponea the WIRE TRANSFERS. Each transfer originating in Iran through Iraq to Canada then New York to Texas, were never less than 5 Million and never less then 2 times a week…….???? When Al discovered there was a Federal Court subpoena he FREAKED OUT and went balistic….thank GOD for the ability to make SCUD missels….., now if we only knew what Al and Hillary know we could probably prevent…World War III. Oh maybe Al and Hillary have a back up plan kinda like the Failing of Maddison Guarenty Savings and Loan in Arkansas…and maybe they will frame Bill for that as well….or finish killing all the people involved with the two differnt banks that began WITH VINCE FOSTER…….Hey guess what the McDougals are spread out as well….You have your James McDougal in Arkansas and your James McDougal in Lubbock Texas………Where the Real Estate Empire ended up….Now they are trying to come into Dallas through Irving, Texas…..Delbert James and Mark James McDougal keep up your appointments with Al and Hillary, How many times do you think Al and Hillary visted you in Lubbock in 1994…..Three times I know of….

Maybe they can bring in Kerry and Dukakis, also.

I think Tipper should come in and talk about how corrupting and morally devoid rap music is…and the people who listen to it. Oh, wait…that's half of Obama's base. Maybe not…

Annoy the Media, Say NO to Obama August 19th, 2008 12:30 pm ET

Dear Obama supporters,

You folks blast anyone that mentions Hillary. Please don't forget that during the primaries, Michelle said that she would NOT support Hillary if she was the nominee. So you people are critizing others for doing exactly what Michelle claims she would have done.

——————————-

First of all, Michelle is personally connected to the campaign and witnessed a lot more of it than us. If she made a decision based on her experiences not to support Clinton, I can't say she's wrong for that. …especially given the way she personally attacked her husband.

I am a supporter of Obama, and I do not hate Hillary. As a matter of fact, I like her very much. If she were the VP choice, I would be very excited because she is capable and strong and they would make an amazing team. I also want to see universal healthcare come back to the forefront.

If Obama chooses Al Gore, I would be equally ecstatic because will Gore be in a stronger position to make this nation green. The idea wasn't popular when he was VP before (especially since congress and the senate were ruled by RNC back then), but it will be now and he'll finally have the support to make big progress.

Most importantly, Gore has a great track record and experience as VP when our economy was strong. What more could one ask for?

Gore was one of the best potential presidents in recent times that the party had. He had vision and leaderships skills that America badly needed at a turning point. He lost the election and he became known for the visionary he is. He has another vision and that is for Senator Obama to be the next president of these United Sates. If we join in his vision maybe we can become wealthy once again as a nation.

To Lisa: You know, I like the Clinton supporters…sometimes they are funny…. But YOU? You are just boring…

Gore speaking at the convention should be interesting… yaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwn…..

Geri - I see you failed to mention fox news, is it because you know they're in McCain's bed? Is it OK for them to be unbiased for McCain and Clinton? If you're going to give us a talking down to, you really should explain your favoritism of and how you think fox news is any different when they have the likes of Hannity and O'Reilly?

Great. If the democrats win the office they will have an absolute DREAM TEAM as cabinet. Gore, Richardson, Hillary, Biden, Bill, Edwards, and even a few republicans. LETS GO OBAMA!

Gore deserves it. He help the Clintons have their best years and the way the man could pay in return was stupid skirt issue that cost Al Gore his chance. But he is the best honest man as compare to the man Clinton who keeps on jabbing at Obama by praising McBush. Gush! At this time of the campaign? A sore loser. Again, bravo Obama for giving Al Gore such an opportunity. Another gent will be Kerry
nganenu

Voice of Reason:

You are one blind person. Open YOUR eyes and see that Obama IS ON THE LIBERAL EXTREME SIDE OF THINGS! HE IS THE MOST LIBERAL PERSON IN THE SENATE! HE IS EXTREME> JUST LOOK INTO HIS PRO-PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION BELIEFS. prochoice or prolife, none of these people BUT OBAMA feel that a baby can be aborted in the 4th trimester. HE IS TRUELY SICK!

NOBAMA 08

I really wish those who have Bathroom degrees (meaning that all of one's "expertise" comes from magazines read while crapping) would stop with all this CARBON FOOTPRINT nonsense. All that does is make those who use a bit less energy feel all warm and fuzzy.

Climate change is an incredibly complex issue that will require far more work than a simple little math "equation". Just take a step back and really thing about the whole "CN" banter. To be truly neutral, everything in your world, not just your car or a few light bulbs, has to be neutral.

I am not a "denier". We are messing up the planet. Fixing it is going to be made harder when all the folks who proudly claim to be CN come out of the woodwork and believe that they have nothing more to do. It will be up to "everyone else" after all, they have done all they can do.

Another loser takes the podium!

Obama certainly revealed his dark side at the Rick Warren Forum. His equivocating answers and foolish statements left voters a clear choice!

McCain crushed him! It was the Commander in Chief versus the professor!

McCain 08!

I think history will show that Al Gore is one of the great statesman of our time. And I think it will show that he was right in speaking out about global climate change. For these reasons, I anticipate his speech. So all the nasty, negative attacks and name-calling in evidence in this blog, if remembered at all, will just be seen as one of the dark sides of human nature: many people hear only what they desire to hear, and believe only what they want to believe.

It's called ignorance, and history always betrays the ignorant.

To Democrat: Thank you for your wise counsel and your service to our country. I am now an independent who voted for Bush 1 who was a very competent and capable president and Gore in 2000 as I wanted to see the good times continue after Clinton. That said I disagree with many of Obama's positions but I am voting for him because of 2 reasons.

First like you stated the world has changed and we are no longer the only super power. We need someone who can listen and talk with other world leaders and garner their respect. McCain has made it clear that he will not speak with our enemy which is immature and proven as wrong for that was the way Bush operated for 7 years and you can see where it has gotten us.

Secondly, I will not vote for another "C" students for the White House. The world as you stated is far too complex and our leader today more than ever needs to be an intellectual. We need someone smart and with good judgment. McCain is a respected war hero but that is not what we need. We need a thoughtful, intelligent and level headed leader who will help us re-join the global community.

Please America, no more partisan politics - simple vote for the smartest, brightest and most likely candidate to bring our country together.

How large a carbon footprint will Al leave when he jets in, on a private jet, for his lecturing of the American people?

Al Gore IS the VP. I am the text message!!!

J from Houston is right on the money on this. Gore is a snake oil salesman.

I am wondering in what manner is Barack Obama a loser. This is the man and his campaign that beat out the Clinton machine. He did so by running a flawless campaign and has made records in online donations. For those of you that call him a loser I am just wondering by what standards you run your life, how successful you are, and maybe you should find a thesaurus to find a better adjective.

Dems '08

dems are stuck in the fix they rigged, blogged…………..michelle obama said she would not vote for hill if she were the nominee…….WHEN. proof please or are you just about spreading lies and ignorance.

Follow-up to Jim and Debkansas:

I'm sure Jim is right, but he doesn't go far enougn. If Obama loses because of the Clintons, it's not just black votes that Hillary won't get. And PUMA's who plan to vote for McCain would do well to investigate him on the subject of women.

P.S. Well said Army Wife.

Since McCain is a Democrat there really is no suprise with all the moderate Democrats voting for him.

As for Gore, he brings absolutely nothing to the convention. If anything, he exposes the left wing of the Democrat party as radical loony's. This cannot lead to anything good for Obama and can really hurt the party when Republicans hammer Democrats in the fall on energy.

karen-phoenix. If you did your homework you would know that 4 of the Keating 5 were Democrats, and 3 of these were found guilty. McCain and John Glen were found to have do nothing wrong. I guess you don't believe in the core American value of innocent until proven guilty. Google it and see, and stop spreading lies.

To All the PUMA's and so-called dischanted voters:

2000 was the first time I ever voted in my whole life. And I voted for Gore. Needless to say, we all know how that election turned out. I felt cheated out of my vote and was like So much for Democracy.. And then I voted in 2004 and lost too with Kerry/Edwards ticket. This time around I'm voting for Obama and I don't intend on losing again.

The point is please don't ruin it for everyone else by being sore losers. She lost fair and square. Because even though my first vote was really stolen, I didn't say 'that's it. Im gonna start voting for someone else now'.. No I stuck by my team, in whole. Vote Strong, Vote Democrat

Steve/Houston,TX for Obama August 19th, 2008 12:44 pm ET

debkansas August 19th, 2008 12:20 pm ET

They all wanted the vp spot. They all backed stabbed Hillary. I have no use for any of them. I hope that Hillary keeps her delegates and give Obama to think about, or can he think on his own.
====================================================

Hillary Hillary Hillary! I can't live without Hillary! Hillary Clinton makes the world go around! People please give me a break! The primaries are OVER; she LOST! Move on, she has. I know that for some, this was the first primary that they ever voted in and for some reason are not very familiar with the process. There was no campaign out there to get Hillary. The DNC did not have it out for Mrs. Clinton. The process was not made up as the primaries went along. Florida and Michigan violated rules that have been in place and they had to suffer the consequences. If Hillary supporters want to be mad at someone and want to march in protest, protest in Florida and Michigan where they do not know how to follow the rules!
****************************************************************************
6 other states broke the rules too, look it up. They all voted for Obama
and they were all included. If those other six were not counted Obama would not be in the running today. I hate Hillary and would vote for a fifth grader over her but fact is that the dnc disqualified 2 of 8 states that moved up the primary date. Funny that the states they got rid of were states Hillary would have won.

Al Gore is such a pretender… it hurts. He pretends to be a scientist — He is NOT. He pretends to be smart…. yeah, he's so smart that he couldn't finish divinity school or law school….

On top of being a pretender, he's such a great hypocrite — first making oodles of money in the Gore tradition of raping the earth and now reaping profits from his global warming snake oil industry. What a louse.

J Houston, you are clearly NOT a scientist with any education in earth science if you are so stupidly determined to disbelieve Gore's climate discussions. Those of us who are educated in earth and climate science and who have Ph.D.'s in the topic understand that your point of view has no merit and you don't know what you are talking about. Gore has got it right, he is on the correct side of the issue, and people need to listen to him. Hopefully this country will wake up from its oil-induced lethargy and get on the ball regarding climate and fossil fuels. It's high time.

"As a Lifelong Democrat, who will be voting for McCain this Fall,"

Yeah, you're a liar.

Either you aren't a lifelong Democrat, or you aren't voting for McCain.

To "Average,"

You liberals crack me up with your theories about grades during college. Would you have used that as a criteria of comparing Nixon to JFK in 1960? Are you to tell me that McCain is not credible as a candiate because of what he did in college? Pardon me, but McCain spent his growing years serving in Vietnam, while Obama has admitting to having been an abuser.

Do you really want to base your opinion on what these candidates did in their youth?

Didn't think so. I suggest you either change your criteria or find a better candidate before picking on a guy like McCain, who suffered years of torture in service of his country. Name a single thing Obama did which is comparable in his service to his country.

Nothing like the scare tactics of the phrases "left-wing" "socialist" and "liberal."

Is this what we should be worried about after the past 8 years of a freedom-stripping administration? John in Ohio put it exactly right!

Obama or Canada '08

The Nobel Prize winner who should have been president and saved us from the Orwellian nightmare of the past 8 years…Right on, Al!

Gore/CNN

We will not vote if HRC is not on ticket.

Where is Gore on the Clinton's trying to steal the convention and the VP slot from Senator Obama. He should get some guts and stand and tell the Clinton's they are wrong.

I DO NOT WANT CLINTON AS THE VP CHOICE!

Al Gore lost his own state of TN in the 2000 election! Ha ha

i hope he is doing the speech via webcast. no private jets. save the planet Al!!!

I heard it's now going to be on Comedy Channel? Can you imagine more disillusioned fools in one locale?

Honestly, Jeff Denver CO, isn't time for your nap, little boy.

I feel like I'm in Willie Wonker. Anyone know when the text is coming in?

Neither party can ignore their sacred cows. Bush & Cheney are extremely unpopular but for them to be ignored at the Republican convention would be unheard of. Same with the Clintons and Gore. If they havent already they should ask Tipper to speak on Hillary night. Its all one big happy Democratic family right?

Gore is arguably one of the greatest VP's in American History. He is cerebral like Obama an is reminder to the Republicans "Not this time."
Obama/ Kerry 08

The comments from the Obama supporters should clearly show the incosistencies we are going to have to put up with if he is elected. Just a month ago some of these same people were on here bashing Gore for not endorsing Obama and saying who needs him he is a has been. Now they are praising him and glad to have him on board. This just shows that the vote or "movement" is all about hype and when it is over and dead the truth and the experience will show its true colors.

Not an angry Hillary supporter, but rather a concerned American voter who would like to see someone with more than just 4 years in the Senate running the country!

You know he's going to be the one on the mic bringing out Obama for the acceptance speech. Ladies and Gentleman, may I introduce to you…

Now all we need is Michael Phelps at the convention!!!

Honestly folks, wouldn't it be funny if it snowed the night "gorged" Gore speaks…it has snowed before in August in Denver.

What a difference it would have been when Al Gore was elected as President in 2000! No war in Iraq and respected in his own and other countrys. I am sure John Kerry had also be a much better President than George Bush.
My fear of today is the electing of John McCain as your new President.
He has tough talks but will be a desaster in office and the whole world would be very dissapointed.
Amereca needs to change his politics to be respected again.

Europe for Barack Obama.

As a Lifelong Democrat, who will be voting for McCain this Fall, I plan on watching the speeches from both Clintons and Core.

I will not watch anything that comes from the Obama Camp.

If he where a viable candidate he would be way ahead in the polls right now.

After watching him try to answer questions Saturday Night I promised myself I wouldn't waste anymore time listening to a School Boy pretending he is a Leader!

Don't be surpised if Obama fools everyone and goes with a real straight talker, Wesley Clark, as his VP.

I think that Gore is just too pure a person to get involved with this group. Al we hold you in great esteem. Please reconsider.

I am a Native American of the Navajo Nation.

It is good to know that former vice president Al Gore is speaking at the convention. I appreciate Al Gore for confronting the threat of global warming throughout his career. He is a strong leader and has been a major influence on the environment.

I will tell now that I don't know a lot about politics; however, I would like to say that I am extremely disappointed in the way that the Republicans have handled themselves. It seems that they are like children fussing on the playground. I expect more from these so- called leaders. Granted , I respect senator McCain for his service in the military, but I am quite surprised at the childish ads that he is promoting. He should be addressing issues that are important to the American people.

I am an obama insider and i am announcing the Vp pick to you all laymen and commoners.
It is CAROLINE KENNEDY SCHOLSBERG !!!!!!
She is a kennedy, jewish and a woman.
Great choice obama.
For more info on the cabinet choices we made just click on HILLARY 2012 .COM

This show is everyone BUT Obama.

Obama needs all the greats to even be at barely 50% support of his own party.

Gore, Clinton's are all parts of the history of the Democratic party. Love the idea of them speaking. It will only inhance the Democratic party and Obama. It shows Obama respectes the past and history.

I have been hearing rumors that the little "story" McCain told Sat about the "cross in the dirt" was plagerized and lifted from a book of memories written by a man in a guloge. From what I have been able to research, McCain is a lier just as much as he was a theif when he was part of the Keating 5 and should have gone to jail with Charlie Keating!

Too bad the main show is the puppet that most democrats voted against.

So many great democratic candidates and we got stuck with who the DNC installed to appease AAs, left-wing fringe and newbie youths.

Please read Jack Cafferty's commentary on John McCain where he hits McCain dead center. I don't know why Republicans supported Bush over McCain for president or for a VP spot, but they did. The "credential" McCain is running on are the same as then which means Republicans didn't care that he was a POW and experience didn't count. There is no logic behind being a POW that qualifies anyone to be president and the Republicans said it best when they didn't vote him. McCain has no logical political ground to stand on other than he is a George W. Bush all over again using Karl Rove tactics. Please read Jack Cafferty's commentary on John McCain.

Sorry Al, I like you but I am not watching the loosing party, the Democratic National Convention next week. I am watching the Animal Channel show all next week!!!

Jan

Party loyalty did not matter to Michelle Obama when she said in an interview that she would not vote for HRC if Clinton were the nominee of the party.

She was not called an hysterical, pouty, ugly, childish, spiteful anti-democratic party woman…

However, those democrats who will not vote for the democratic candidate this election, ARE being called those very things and worse.

Funny… hypocrisy… the national crisis is the same… and I thought we were voting for a party platform and NOT a candidate.

Michelle is voting for HER candidate…. many democrats will exercise the same right and the same freedom to defect from party loyalty.

When Obama wins, I'm gonna stop working and get on board with those phat government giveaways that are coming. Let some other sucker work for da man!

Is MCCain auditioning for a part in a Audie Murphy movie or running for the office of the President,I wonder if his ardent supporter CNN will reveal that our war hero also read comments written by his captors for the press denouncing America for ordering schools and hospitals bombed. I wonder how many of the other captives turned on America my understanding is that he was the only one. If you want this coward truly revealed watch him blink when he speaks the greater the lie the more rapid the blinks, I guess there are many definitions of "war hero", but a coward my friends is easily recognized, accusing his opponent of treason in an effort to gain votes, he's lower than a coward. Fabricating stories about his captivity daily in an attempt to win sympathy votes, he's a pitiful old man who is suffering from dementia sending his emissaries to Georgia he thinks he is the president., only a crazed war hawk like him would give demands to Russia when their consequences of ignoring him is he'll order our two remaining troops over there. Yep! a good rest home would do him some good.

I honestly can't get over how shallow Americans are .. you voted for Bush twice … reason .. Gore was boring and Kerry was not patriotic. You are the world's laughing stock .. everyone has moved on, you're are becoming irrelevant.

"Start of a new day in america under Obama = start to loose freedom, start to loose liberty, keep growing government bigger and bigger, start of socialism in the american government!"

We lost freedom and liberty under Bush.

Third Way social democracy works for England, Canada, Australia, Norway, Germany, Sweden, and Denmark. National health care works, and is in place in every single developed nation except the US. Every developed nation leads us in education.

The new day you're so afraid of is the new day where the US finally catches up to the rest of the world. Socialism in the American government? Great! We need it. Bigger government? Hey, without it our schools suck, our military is weak, our roads fall apart, our cities descend into poverty, and so on.

We've had 8 years to witness the abject failure of conservative ideology. It's time for some socialism.

Why are we even having a convention anyway? Obama already declared victory in San Francisco.

I love Keith Olbermann . He is the best. I love watching him
Mccain needs to grow up. He is 72yr greate-great father. He behave like a child.
McCain cheated on his first wife and left her and the kids, and than married a woman 25 years younger than him, he is not a man of good values or character.
His wife Cidi took every that also belongs to half brother. I had about it on the Raido.
Mccain does not wear a shoe that is less than $500. He owns more than 8 houses.
So MCcain and his wife does not know that USA are suffreing.
I'm a woman so I will never vote for a man who has not value.
McCain please respest yourself and stop all those lies about obama.
You will never be in the white house.
You are like BUSH
OBAMA08-12

Well Michelle Obama said she would not vote for HRC if Hillary were the party nominee….

Many other democrats are going to say the same thing about her Hubby if he is the nominee.

Michelle was not criticized or called undemocratic or unloyal to party or to country… so no other democrat should be called pouty or childish for doing the same.

Terrific. An Academy Award and Nobel Peace Prize winner who got his rear end handed to him by Bush over the course of three debates in 2000 by doing nothing but responding via sighs (sigh).

Yeah, I can hardly wait to hear him speak.

(sigh)

(sigh)

(sigh)

Hillary CANNOT even pay off her primary debts, how would she be able to run and win a national campaign? Now I have come to believe how much brain some Hillary supporters have: Brain of a little Bird!

First, pay down the primary debts; next, ask all the faked Republicans who voted for Hillary to return to their party; divorce Bill because no Republican would stand up to let Bill return and roam in that White House, then you can write in Hillary's name. Ready, start, go— and good luck!

The people who are saying that it's over for Hillary, she lost, get over it, etc. are the same ones still whining that Gore was robbed eight years ago.

TO RPS: I do agree with you on who gets to speak. Bill Clinton's affairs are too many and really disgusting but let's be serious, Bill is like a mobster with Hillary as his right hand, so if they don't speak at the Convention they will create some kind of riots between blacks and white women.

There are so many McShame supporters here that are complete hypocrites. How can u say Obama isnt justified for attacking McShame after the republican has been bashing obama for so long. McShame made a website declaring the many ways to kill iranians yet his supporters have the audacity to suggest Obama is radical? Risky? Get real and wake up!

OBAMA 08

what the hell is wrong with obama, why do we have to give to rebuild georgia that is the russians responsibility we shouldn't have to give anything we didn't cause the damage. that is so stupid!

To chris:

I wasnt talking about flip flopping, I was talking about people like you who FAIL to see anything other than what they want to see, and then call out the opposition for doing the same thing! YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE!

dear Erika from KS,

you, a HRC clinton supporter, say you will "never vote for a junior senator running for president regardless of who he/she might be"

unfortunately for you, HRC is a junior senator, so you seem to be caught in a nice little web-o-lies.

you're funny.

HRC will never win the nomination this year or any other year. What has been going on since she LOST, yes she LOST, the nomination has been nothing short of ridiculous. HRC had a poorly run campagain, She and her staff made some poor judgement calls. She ran her campagain into debt. HMM what would she have done to the country??? I used to support her for what she stood for. Now what she stood for is lost due to a group of inidividuals who would rather see the country go down in flames by a president, John McCain, whose views are contrary to HRC. This blaming everyone else and tearing the party to pieces by HRC and the republicans who make up the majority of the PUMA is why she will never be president. That is why everyone tells you to stop complaining and get over it.

I wonder who CNN (Clinton News Network) is backing!!!??? I am so tired of partisan journalism not to mention the B Hussein Obama link on CNN Politics every day. Give me a break. Where is Hannity/Coulter when we need them.

CNN please post: I find it really funny how the Obama supporters are called the CULT group when in fact, PUMAS are very threatening, scary individuals. every post is about how they are going to take revenge for their Leader, Hillary. If anyone is in a cult it is the hillary supporters, they are still crying about her loss, they sound so pathetic. Get over it, cult followers. You can't cry your way to the win. Your Cult leader, Hillary, told you to get over it so you should listen to her since you can't think without her. You guys sound like some crazy religious cult like the FLDS.

For everyone who is going to say that Hillary should be VP or the nominee, what do you base that on? She was completely incapable of running her campaign. She couldn't manage the message, she couldn't budget or manage her finances, and she kept going after it was clear she couldn't get the delegates. Complain all you want about caucuses, each state has the right to choose how it will select a nominee, and the Clinton camp had no problems with caucuses until they started losing in them. With all the problems we have in the US with budgeting and the national debt, do we want somebody who generates millions in debt just in her primary campaign to be anywhere near the national economy?

This is great! If the convention hall is really cold that night, his hot air should help immensely. Possibly the biggest blowhard to come along since Slick, with Obama currently chasing him for that title.

Obama supporters………….get a life and change your attitude! You need not be nasty about everyone but Obama. When reading your comments I am almost ashamed to be a democrat. The sad thing is that CNN and MSNBC praise Obama and slam McCain & Clinton. This only brings out the worst in you people. Cafferty & Andrea Mitchell are by far the instigators of most of this although everyone on both networks is in bed with Obama. I'm sure CNN won't post this because it offends them but I feel very strongly that the media should stay unbiased and all the nastiness needs to stop.

I think it's only fair to allow the last democrat to receive a majority of the votes in an election speak at this historic event.

Had the Clinton clan done something to help Gore in his 2000 campaign, maybe we wouldn't have been stuck with wars, recessions and the worst presidency in US history with Bush. What goes around comes around Hill, you got exactly what you deserved!

I for one plan to boo like hell during Hillary's speech. I can't beleive what sore losers her supporters have turned out to be!

Time for Laugherty to make some more anti Clinton anti-McCain statements. Cmon Cafferty show us your Barack O Blah-blah's pom poms

Has anyone else read the commentary Jack Cafferty wrote about McCain ?. It was spot on !!. Check it out !

Why does the Democratic/Republican/Liberal/Conservatives continue to entrust Al Gore with any of the functions of the White House. Do you not understand that the failing Savings and Loan Institutions in Texas were the product of Al Gore and Hillary's race to the White House this was funded by Iran money being ran through Iraq then Canada, then New York (YES) New York then through Texas. The Iran weapons that are purchased are not hidden in Iran they are indeed in Russia…..If you send Al Gore and Hillary to Russia….as soon as they are there the war will begin…….Al Gore never in Texas yes he worked at Addison State Bank that was robbed on Halloween by a Clown in 1985……Obama get a grip and get these people out of your campaign….

"Why can't Clinton supporters put together coherent sentences?"
————————————————————————————–

Because they're undercover Republicans.

Erika from kansas has deep rooted problems

How ironic that some of you find it appropriate to mock Mr. Gore's message when I found the link to this story right under yet ANOTHER story about flooding… this time in Wichita Falls.

I guess you won't really understand the seriousness of climate change until it is at your front door. Americans, seriously the most ignorant and selfish people on the Earth.

And no, Erika, Hillary wasn't stabbed in the back. I believe it's called "losing". And you not voting Obama will not stop him from becoming the President. You and all the other Hillary supporters cannot help McCain's flailing candidacy… and if you want to, you must love Hillary more than you love your country. What a shame.

This is a great time to call for party UNITY - from a man who knows first-hand what having victory snatched-away at the last minute is all about.
Hopefully the pumA's will be put in their place by Senator Clinton and (President) Gore will remind the faithful of what four more years of the current policies would bring.

I think it would be great if, Gore, Hillary and Bill were all back in office.
Obama cannot hold a candle to any of them. Obama needs to come back in about 10 years when he has some experience under his belt.
Right now he is the new kid on the block that cannot act like a Rock
Star .Change is good, but what kind of change? All changes are not
good changes.

Yeah! Instead of taking sleeping pills, we can watch Al Bore instead!

I am feeling the same as Democrates above although maybe a little less of an Obama fan, but I'll still vote for him. It won't matter who is president if people don't become less partisan and shed the hatred and anger that I am getting from many of these comments. Its going to be hard to get behind whoever wins for the good of the country if all of this animosity is allowed to build up during the election. I think the McCain camp is more over the top in negative campaigning than Obama. Obama is mainly debating policy, McCain seems to be debating personality and motives.

Somebody please answer why they think Clinton would win. All I hear is that she would definately win and Obama has no chance. It is baffling that people are that delusional. Hillarry lost the primary, is the most polarizing figure in politics, has promoted disunity (in both parties and bipartisan efforts),and Republicans hate her so much they would actually unify to whoop her butt by a landslide.

please pay no attention to the fake person that is blogging under my name. It is a puma (fake democrat) or a repug. they only have one or two supporters so they have to use others name to seem like they are more than what they are. They are truly despicable.

To "Moderate Democratic, New York": the reason Obama is bringing back these 3 democrats to speak is because he is being threatened by the PUMAS to do so. And there isn't really anything wrong with Gore, he is likable unlike Hillary. Bill is such a sham of a person. I stopped liking the dirty Clintons ever since Hillary started running. Hillary is the worst candidate in US history, and will happily destroy this country and divide people up by their skin color and so her best friend, Ferraro said.

I like Obama. He's not a celebrity, he's an ordinary man who has the bold idea that America should belong to the voters, not corporations. I think he's doing a fantastic job, and I know he'll be a great president. This country should not belong to one party. We should have leaders from both parties speaking for the people. I'm waiting to see that happen, someday it will.

After 8 years of the Karl Rove Administration, I'm tired and fed up with a puppet president. I want to see real leadership in the oval office, and Barack will be that leader.

Hang in there America, if you want to see change–it's coming.

P.S. Good choice asking Al to speak on the last night with Barack.

The Clinton Convention is going to be the best and most shocking in history!

It would be nice if he would speak more often these days about the environment. And support Obama.

Al Gore deserves the recognition as he is a great statesman, and his award of the Nobel prize is no fluke.

I guess the only prize W can get is a dunce cap.

"wow, of course they choose this loon.

Obama supporters all seem to be attacking McCain and saying McCain supports are closed minded. However, dont be hypocritical, Obama supporters fail to see any other reason besides what they have been fed.

Long live the Kult for OBAMA!

NOBAMA 08″

Look at McCain's record and tell me you're not being hypocritical after calling John Kerry a flip-flopper…

P.S. and an Addendum to my earlier comment:

Both Clintons and Gore speaking at the convention will absolutely DWARF Obama, and he needs to be cut down to size.

Wait and see. Obama won't change anything. Obama can't change anything. And we're seeing that more and more each day. Moderate in NY, you are correct. Obama's leaning pretty heavy on the old democratic strongholds, isn't he? Hillary. Bill. Al. Joe. LOL! He's a junior senator little boy. And it will indeed be so painfully obvious at the convention. HA. HA!

This will further infuriate the Clinton's and this will in turn help the republicans. One thing we have learned is you let a sleeping dog rest and the Obama campaign just awoke a political giant!!!!

Maybe Al will tell some more lies about man made global warming.

Subject: Ethical Democrats

I believe the democrats have suddenly developed a keen sense of morality. John Edwards has been banned from making a speech at the democratic convention for having an affair and lying about it.

In his place Bill Clinton (did not have sex/didn't inhale) will be speaking.

To Average:

"we dont need no more."?? Your a hypocrite, you talked about intelligence in the whitehouse and you dare write a double negative? HA HA HA. LMAO.

TYPICAL DEMOCRAT!

I like you, Al. However, I won't be watching the coronation. I also won't be voting for the Democrat this year for the first time in my life.

The Obama Camp has kept the big surprise of OBAMA/GORE 2008! It is now out.

I was wondering when Gore would appear. This is a great way to end the convention, he is afterall, one of the most successful democrats out there. I just will have to switch to a different channel once Hillary and Bill talk. They are the reason I hate to be a democrat.

I take my hat off to Al Gore for his ginuine concern,integrity and
courage. He is a true leader and very much capable of guiding
this county through the grave situation we find ourselves in now.
I wished he had entered the race.

If there's one thing I can't stand, it's anyone having the nerve to talk down about Al Gore. This wonderful man has done more to educate people about global warming, which is the most serious threat facing all countries, and yet we have all these Republican operatives posting on here that he's a "loon", "windbag". Nice try idiots. I love how you think that by simply pulling out your usual insults can somehow just smear and discredit such a good man and wash away all he's done for us. My friends and I always speak of how much better off we'd be if he were rightfully in office. It makes me angry to think that the guy who won the popular vote had the election stolen by the U.S. Supreme Court appointing the "true loon" we have now.

Hillary would make a better President than Obama anyday, anytime, anywhere.

I hope it'll be a "warm" night for him…

Re: Laughing : Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and Al Gore speaking at the convention. obama will seem like a little useless kid.

Kinda ironic, I think. Obama's mantra is "change, change change," and he's bringing these three individuals above to speak at the Convention, who during the that Adminsitration, gave us prosperous times and whatever nostalgia you can conjure up. My point being, that for someone who continuous chant is change, he has these people, who a lot of us wish were back in office, speaking at the convention. It's weird, I can't explain it, but it's something along the lines of irony.

I am laughing as I type this. I can't wait to fall asleep while he gives his hot air blast. Oh wait, hot air?….is that appropo, Al? What a bunch of clowns…..with the biggest clown at the head of the ticket.

Most over used words on this blog: "it's over" and "get over it" and "grow up" and "she lost people!" etc., etc., etc.,

And No. We won't get over it! Hillary was stabbed in the back. Obama didn't win anything. He too was appointed by Pelosi, who couldn't stand the thought of Hillary in charge. LOL! The Supreme Court did appoint George W Bush as the president. Obama is a flake and a very weak candidate. No, I won't grow up. I will NEVER, (hear me scream) vote or support a junior senator running for president, regardless of who he or she might be. You Obamafans are nothing but bandwagoners believing his line of crap. And you're idiots to think he can do anything other than talk well. I'm not that stupid or naive.

Obama pick Hillary or lose.
It's that simple

Obama is extremely smart and he will make the right decision.

Good Luck Mr. Gore at what ever you take on. Sorry doesn't begin to cover how we feel about not doing more to protect you from the Bush election thieves. Our country has paid for this travisty in blood, and im sorry that I ever heard of George Bush.

Us people down here in the trailer park will never vote for Obama………

cant wait to hear more about manbearpig. btw i heard the glaciers and polar bears are doing fine, what happened to the possibility they would melt away this summer?

McCain cheated on his first wife and left her and the kids, and than married a woman 25 years younger than him, he is not a man of good values or character.

Just unbelievably pathetic. Talks about change, then brings in Hillary and two big windbags. If you could harness the wind in Gore and Clinton you just might be able to solve our energy problems.

While AL Gore is saving the planet, he might be well advised to apply some of his salvation talents to the Democratic Party…………in particular the CLintons.

I voted for Gore in 2000 and I was very disappointed when he didn't win and instead we got the evil Bush, so I am excited about his speaking role!

I am so glad Al Goe is getting the chance to speak at the convention. I am not going to cry over the spilt milk of what should have been with him as president, but I am glad to see him get the respect he deserves. As a formet HRC supporter ( I got turned off by the PUMA movement and the constant whining etc) It is nice to see the one individual with a integrity left from the Clinton administration speaking.

Superdelegate Gore needs to vote for Hillary.

I see that CNN is once again deleting the comments that don't fit their liberal agenda.

and when will Kerry speak ?
why are these failed guys being called to speak , uhh

Hilary supporters…..

Please please please wake up and smell the coffee. The Democratic Party’s presidential nominee is going to be nominated on Thursday. Please get that in your head.

Love you all. Dems!!!!

Obama 08 & 12

Another in a long line of losers, we will soon add obama. Maybe Cafferty will write another bitter one sided hack piece about it.

Pat Riot: Not funny. Just ignorant….

McCain finished at 894 out of 899 students at his naval academy. We don't need no more average to below average intelligent Presidents like Bush. This is why McCain gives short answers to questions. Folks think he is being direct, but actually, he does not have anymore to say.

The election of 2000 was an amazing opportunity for Al Gore. As the VP to one of the greatest American Presidents, and on the heels of a truly golden era for this country, Mr. Gore should have won hands down. As he turned his back on the Clintons and refused to let them help him win, he turned his back on victory and lost much credibility.

Now, the Democratic Party is poised to lose another election thanks to Barack Obama and Mr. Gore has been dragged out of political retirement to punctuate the close of what promises to be a painful and contentious convention. As the most left-wing, flawed, unqualified and divisive nominee ever chosen by the DNC, Mr. Obama has already secured his place in history as the Democratic Party’s worst nominee ever.

The future of the Democratic Party is truly in question.

Democrates: Thank you for your service and your wise words. If the democrates lose the White House this election, it will go way beyond Obama as he is fighting the Republicans, the self serving Clinton holders on and the media who have scrutinized Obama to death and has given McCain a free ride with every lie, misspeak and objective analysis of his past and the hypocrisy of his campaign.

hope it rains!

With both Clinton and Gore at the convention they better double up on that donut order.

Erika, a group of newspapers finished the FL recount in 2000. Guess what? Gore really lost! Get over it.

God, wake me when it's over. The national bore. I'd rather hear Tipper talk about Twisted Sister lyrics.

You could not have found a better speaker for the right moment.

And some were saying that Obama, did not have control of his convention. Well think again. Looks like he decided to give more exposure to Al Gore on a larger stage , with a bigger audience, and more exposure than he is giving Billary…!!!!….This guy knows what he's doing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

An Al Gore speech is great addition to the Democratic Convention.

debkansas August 19th, 2008 12:20 pm ET

They all wanted the vp spot. They all backed stabbed Hillary. I have no use for any of them. I hope that Hillary keeps her delegates and give Obama to think about, or can he think on his own.
====================================================

Hillary Hillary Hillary! I can't live without Hillary! Hillary Clinton makes the world go around! People please give me a break! The primaries are OVER; she LOST! Move on, she has. I know that for some, this was the first primary that they ever voted in and for some reason are not very familiar with the process. There was no campaign out there to get Hillary. The DNC did not have it out for Mrs. Clinton. The process was not made up as the primaries went along. Florida and Michigan violated rules that have been in place and they had to suffer the consequences. If Hillary supporters want to be mad at someone and want to march in protest, protest in Florida and Michigan where they do not know how to follow the rules!

He had better pick Biden….I think Barack has finally realized just how close he is to pulling this scam off and he had better find someone who knows what they are doing.

save the best for last. it takes shared brilliance and consistency to come this long. nothing can stop the move, not even the press gang-up

Al Gore will not be the VP, I wish he was,but I can live with Biden.
To debkansas In the beginning I was backing John Edwards, because of his health care plan. When he dropped out I was backing Hillary, because of her health care plan. Then she dropped. Now I'm backing Obama, I like him, he was my third choice anyway and it is so important that the Dems. get back the White House. I can't go another four years like this that's for sure. So I'm asking all Hillary supporters to support Obama and unite the party, we need the things the Dems. and Obama can give us.

This is going to be huge

Al Gore is going to try and sell his lies about humans causing global warming. It is a big making making scam for him.

A good time to sleep!

The worst day in 8 years was when George Bush took the oath of office. Gore would have been the better president. Everyone knows that now.

Nice to know Al Gore will be speaking. He was cheated out of the presidency in his own right by the Supreme Court. He and Bill Clinton are both great elders of the democratic party.

Having said that, I can't support Obama regardless of who he chooses, unless that person is Hillary Clinton. I am sick of stupid men running, I mean ruining this country! They all stabbed Hillary in the back. I will never vote for a man again. Apparently, they only like women int he bedroom and in the kitchen. Ohhhh, smart women, how scary! Idiots. And yes, a woman vp for McCain would also help, unless it's that liar Condi Rice.

AL GORE '08

NObama '08!

Will the windbag Gore be using public transportation or riding a bike there? I dont think so. The fat bloated Gore will arrive via private jet

He'll do for climate change what he's accomplished for Democrats.

Announcement: He's invented a weather changing machine.

Dare you to print it.

Love it, the Democratic Convention will be like no other.

McCain or George Bush couldn't fill a stadium if their lives depended on it. This will be fantastic. And don't allow anyone to tell you, Obama supporters that filling up an arena is a bad thing. They wish they could do the same thing. Boy do they wish people would come out for them.

Let's call a spade a spade. Barack is popular, and McCain is not.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There has been no mention of Al Gore for the Office of V.P. and it would be very unlikely at this juncture. Hillary didn't manage her own people; much less her finances and threw out a desperate cry of sexism when it was apparent that her vile sewer campaign only turned away educated voters. Die-hard GOP voters aside, there are many more democratic, independent and cross-over republican voters to Hillary's '18 million' that have absolutely no use for her.

i just got another text message saying that Bugs Bunny is going to be Obama's VP

Rob

this message is to debkansas:

If Obama loses this election, you can forget Hillary winning in 2012. She will fail to get any majority of the black vote. They will remember 2008 if Obama loses.

I used to have a lot of respect for Al Gore, then he endorsed Mr. Arrogance in a suit. Now I just wonder if we can keep Al Gore in a "lock box!!"

Gore is a great choice to speak on the same night as Barack. I think it's ironic that Gore is speaking on the last night of the Democratic Convention which will make a good impression. While George Bush is speaking on the first night of the GOP Convention because he will make a bad impression. They want him to speak, and then hurry up and get out of town. LOL And please, GW, don't take a picture with anyone on your way out. LOL What a difference 8 years make.

Go Gore, Go Barack.

Obama 08

Hey Debkansas,

Its amazing to me just how bitter Hillary supporters have gotten as if its Barack's fault why she lost. She lost, even with a 10,000 yard head start, because of her arrogance and that he is a better candidate. I really liked Hillary before this primary, but she hasn't served herself well. So to all you Clinton supporters, wake up, get over it, and support the next President Barack Obama

dont Democrat voters understand? Obama is farther to the left than Bush is to the right! Why should we substitute a extreme canidate for an extreme on the other end? You dont know what kind of america this will be under Obama. It will go further the other way and be JUST AS BAD! McCain is more middle lined. Just look at the conservative base. They are hesitant to vote for McCain because he is too liberal for them!

WAKE UP PEOPLE. STOP READING OBAMA's WEB SITE AND FIND TRUELY BIPARISAN INFORMATION!

NOBAMA 08!
