Clinton in the lead (unless Gore runs?); McCain, Giuliani slip in GOP survey


Wednesday, Jun. 27, 2007

Boston – A New Hampshire presidential poll by WHDH-TV and Suffolk University shows that local Democrats prefer Al Gore to any of the current contenders.

Hillary Clinton has a solid lead over the rest of the current Democratic field. The poll, released this afternoon, shows 37 percent of likely Democratic voters backing Clinton or leaning towards her. Barack Obama was at 19 percent, with both John Edwards and Bill Richardson at 9 percent.

Al Gore, however, could enter the race as the leader. When his name is added, Clinton loses more than a quarter of her support, while Gore is backed by 32 percent.

Cheney part of executive branch again

Dick Cheney's lawyers agree: He's part of the executive branch.

Vice President Cheney’s office will not pursue the argument that he is separate from the executive branch, senior administration officials tell The Politico. The decision follows a threat by Rep. Rahm Emanuel (Ill.), the No. 3 House Democrat, to try to cut off the office’s $4.8 million in executive-branch funding.

It is safe to say that the money trumps the principle for Cheney. Faced with having his funding cut off by Rahm Emanuel the VP drops his tail and look for away to save some face. Guess What? It 's too late. If there is a person alive that still thinks this man is operating on all cylinders please respond to this blog post.

So what is new for us to find out that Cheney company that is making half a billion a month off US Tax payers is not a US company. OPPS too late on that too...........

I think all of those in the race are watching their backs.

Craig Crawford's Trail Mix: Poll Suggests Gore Entry No Threat to Clinton - New York Times

Threat to Clinton

By Craig Crawford, CONGRESSIONAL QUARTERLY
Published: June 18, 2007

If Al Gore runs for the Democratic presidential nomination, the former vice president appears to draw evenly from the top two contenders, Sens. Hillary Clinton of New York and Barack Obama of Illinois.

Each loses roughly five percentage points to Gore if his name is included among the hopefuls, according to a new nationwide Gallup survey of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents. Clinton holds a wide lead over the field, either way — suggesting that a Gore run might not affect the outcome at all.

With Gore included, Clinton still handily leads the pack at 33 percent while Obama gets 21 percent to Gore’s 18 percent, a statistical dead heat for second place. Take Gore out of the equation and the Gallup poll shows Clinton at 39 percent and Obama at 26 percent.

John Edwards trails badly in either scenario, posting 11 percent at fourth place with Gore in the mix and back to third place at 13 percent without Gore.

We will see about these numbers.

An Egghead for the Oval Office

Al Gore has been in town launching his new book, "The Assault on Reason," and you could have predicted the buzz: Is he about to jump into the race? What you probably wouldn't have predicted is the counter-buzz that Gore, poor fellow, is just too ostentatiously smart to be elected president.

In the book, you see, Gore betrays familiarity with history, economics, even science. He uses big words, often several in the same sentence. And in public appearances he doesn't even try to disguise his erudition. These supposedly are glaring shortcomings that should keep Gore on the sidelines, rereading Gibbon and exchanging ideas about the structure of the cosmos with Stephen Hawking.


Leave aside the question of whether Gore is even thinking about another presidential run, or how he would stack up against the other candidates. I'm making a more general point: One thing that should be clear to anyone who's been paying attention these past few years is that we need to go out and get ourselves the smartest president we can find. We need a brainiac president, a regular Mister or Miss Smarty-Pants. We need to elect the kid you hated in high school, the teacher's pet with perfect grades.

Wow, I am blow away -Mr Robinson you sir are correct., I guess I should not be cuz someone in the media had to come out and say it. The real problem is the we needed this person 7 years ago and the next President will have to do more, be more and say more than any president since Abe Lincoln.

The real problem is the we needed this person 7 years ago and the next President will have to do more, be more and say more than any president since Abe Lincoln.

That said the counter buzz has noted on several blogs and commentary way before the book came out cuz that is all they have on Gore. He is too smart.........and most knew going in to 2000 that the current occupant of Penn Ave, NW is not and not too many are impressed and probably have been pealing their bumper stickers off the SUV.
