Al Gore Endorses Obama

[Parkbandit]

Wow.. way to find your nuts and finally endorse Obama now that he's already won the nomination.

[Clove]

That's our Al G.

[Mabus]

I hear next week he is going to say the world is round!

Must have been a slow news night.
"Dog bites man!"
"Gore endorses Democrat!"

[Gan]

Ditto.

No suprise about the endorsement. No suprise at the timing either. Last thing he would want to do is piss off the Clintons. ;)

Obama, on the other hand, seems to purposely doing it:


_______________________________________

Buried in a list of new appointments the Obama campaign announced Monday was this: "Chief of Staff to the Vice Presidential Nominee: Patti Solis Doyle."

Remember Patti? She was Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, until she got canned in February...er, left the campaign. Here's a good backgrounder on her departure from "Hillaryland" -- a term, which apparently she coined.

The reaction from Hillarylard. A Clinton insider told CQ: "Translated subtitles aren't necessary. There is no other way to interpret this other than '[Expletive] you.'"

Yeah, yeah, so this is inside-baseball stuff, right? Not really. If PSD is Obama's czarina of Vice Presidential Nominee, then guess who probably isn't going to get the nod? Uh-huh. And some of Hillary's peeps are p.o'd. Like San Francisco's own Susie Tompkins Buell. She told the Washington Post:

"It's a slap in the face," Buell said. "Why would they put somebody that was so clearly ineffective in such a position? It's a message. We get it." She said it was a "calculated decision" by the Obama team to "send a message that she [Clinton] is not being considered for the ticket."

Indeed. Even though Patti's farewell statement from Hillaryland said, "I have been proud to manage this campaign, and prouder still to call Hillary my friend for more than sixteen years," apparently the two haven't spoken since.

A DEMOCRAT ENDORSING ANOTHER DEMOCRAT?

Jesus Christ, what has this planet come to?

Also:

HAHAHAAHAAAHAHAHAHAHA/::devilish-maniacal laughter::, my eyes seem to be particularly wonderful targets for sporks, currently. I even have the OP on ignore.

[Stanley Burrell]

Oh. And. You know...

Fack.
