Democrats so Fearful of Hillary’s Legal Troubles They Are Actually Pressuring Al Gore to Run Again

-By Warner Todd Huston

This is a sure sign of desperation among the Party elites. Democrats are so afraid that Hillary Clinton is increasingly being seen as damaged goods that some party bigwigs are now trying to convince Al Gore to run for the 2016 nomination. Seriously. AL GORE!

First of all, we see a piece by Fox News’ Chris Stirewalt that reveals that Hillary Clinton is doing very poorly in polling in six key swing states. The fact is, Hillary is increasingly looked upon as a liar that no one, even Democrats, can trust.

And as more and more of these stories about her illegal email service slowly leak out bit by bit, the more her credibility is damaged, especially with independents.

So, now that leads us to insiders trying to convince Al Gore to run again

Supporters of Al Gore have begun a round of conversations among themselves and with the former vice president about his running for president in 2016, the latest sign that top Democrats have serious doubts that Hillary Clinton is a sure thing.

…But in recent days, “they’re getting the old gang together,” a senior Democrat told BuzzFeed News.

“They’re figuring out if there’s a path financially and politically,” the Democrat said. “It feels more real than it has in the past months.”

Now, I’d say it isn’t likely that Gore would be interested. But that this pleading for the wooden, boring, wonky, no-personality Gore to run shows just how desperate some Democrats are getting.

Meanwhile, socialist Bernie Sanders is getting tens of thousands to come out at each of his campaign stops and Hillary is lucky to get a third of that out to hers.

And think of the other two names that seem to be most favored by the left aside from Hillary at this point. The avowed socialist senator, Sanders, and or all people Joe “the dunce” Biden!? THESE are all the candidates that the Democrats can come up with? Talk about the weakest of weak benches.
