Patrick Ruffini, who is not only a great blogger but also has a
fascinating electoral analysis of the possibility of Gore running in 2004. He seems
to think that it’s not as far-off an idea as some would think. Despite losing an
election that he should have won, there’s evidence that Gore partisans might have
enough sway to get him the nomination. With as many Democrats who think that
Gore won the first time, anything’s possible.
Also, political scientists will want to check out the great electoral breakdown
graphs Mr. Ruffini has done showing the concentration of Bush and Gore votes
in several states. He notes that it was Gore, and not Bush, who carried the richest
sections of America… this is something that has quite a few implications for
the Republican Party…
