Poll question: Which former Dem. Presidential hopeful should grow an Al Gore beard?
now that they are out of the public eye and media meat grinder? or need to tweak their image a bit? Maybe one of them always wanted to grow a beard. but never had the chance or opportunity. They all seemed to want to be the 'comeback kid' a la Bill Clinton. Maybe there will be an unofficial contest to see who appears first on CNN with an Al Gore Beard, looking all thoughtful, relaxed and academic.

Al Gore's Beard is gone! long live Al Gore's Beard!



I thought about posting in the Lounge, but there are political and career implications to an Al Gore Beard

Maybe Big Media would have paid a little attention to her if she had a beard!

11. I think Gore's beard looked great!
Why is that a beard is somehow a bad thing? Who decides these idiotic rules? I wish that one of these guys actually would have the guts to run for office while sporting a beard.

I photoshopped some dude's beard on Dean.

Doesn't look great, but it gives you an idea of how Dean would look

16. I miss Gore's beard *sigh*
I think Dean would look best with a beard, but then I didn't know how great Al would look with one, so maybe Joe should give it a shot, heh.
