2003-12-10 9:09 AM Gore's Endorsement Previous Entry :: Next Entry Read/Post Comments (4) William Saletan in Slate thinks that Gore's endorsement of Dean is undemocratic:
Well no, the voters haven't decided yet, but by that point, isn't it a bit late? Is Saletan actually suggesting that Gore wait until after the bulk of primary elections (or even general ones) to endorse Dean? Does this strike anyone else as absurd? Gore says he is backing Dean because he thinks he's the strongest. The strength of a candidate is subjective, right? And Gore's not the only one who perceives Dean to be the strongest candidate. As I've already pointed out, the only true objective standard of a candidate's strength is how many people actually vote for them. And it's idiotic to suggest that someone like Gore wait until after ballots are already cast to endorse the person he thinks is best for the job.
