On All Things Presidential

In an article in the NY Daily News, columnist Goodwin discusses the talk surrounding a possible bid for the Presidency by NYC Mayor, Michael Bloomberg (R)> In it Goodwin says that although Bloomberg “has ventured onto the national stage on gun control, immigration and stem-cell research, he is nobody's fool -- and he knows he doesn't stand a chance of winning the presidency.” … And they're both right; not only does Bloomberg not have the national exposure, he is no Rudy Giuliani.

On Fox News’ O’Reilly Factor last night, political pundit Dick Morris [you remember Dick... he was the advisor to Pres. Clinton who often talked to Bill while shacking up with one of his steady NY call-girls when in town]... well, Dick said that Al Gore is running for President again! Gore denies it now because he “doesn't want to be seen as running while he's putting out this movie. I guess he wants to check the temperature of his political exposure in a few weeks as the furor/excitement/criticism/box office money over the movie dies down. Anyway, Dick's point about Gore is that he really is now the un-Hillary [candidate] of the Democratic primary.” I think Dick thinks Gore has a chance. Unfortunately, he lost my unimaginable vote when he claimed to have invented the internet.

Hmmmmm, Tim Berners-Lee for President? Now that's a candidate I can get behind on!

Heh - Gore and his mad oration style, which he adopted since he was beaten by President Bush, has given the opposition such a huge target to go after... I nearly feel sorry for him if he does run. Very nearly - but I still want to see it - and all the videos of those barn burner speeches. LOL.

Berners- Lee... heck I'd go for Vint Cerf over Al Gore. *grin*
