Gore to the Rescue - updated

I think it is finally coming to the point where Al Gore might be the only one that will "heal" the rifts in the Democratic party.

Both Obama and Hillary has widened the tear - Edwards even though a wonderful candidate with terrific appeal and plans, has not managed to get the fractions to join - or even stop killing each other - and in the process the Democratic party is getting more ande more fractioned.
Little update -- Hilton/Clinton typing error - thanks
In the Obama and Clinton camps there are strong fractions that both are pulling apart - and as words came from the Obama camp that less Obama voters would vote for Hillary in case she should be nominated (as shown on Olberman) but Hillary voters would vote for Obama if nominated.  That not insignificant fact is now making things worse.

So - if the powers to be - can get Al Gore to step in the ring - what would be the response here at Kos

FROM CNN’s Jack Cafferty:
Consider this: What if we go through the Florida primary and Super Tuesday and the race between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama remains as tight as it’s been? For the primaries, Democrats have the same rules in every state: delegates are awarded in proportion to the vote — meaning no winner-take-all. If Clinton and Obama continue to split the vote in many states, it’s possible we could get to late spring or early summer and neither candidate would have enough delegates to secure the nomination.

And that’s assuming they get that far without destroying each other with their increasingly nasty bickering. There just might be an opening for someone else to step in and unify the party. Oh, you know, like say maybe Al Gore.

Also, it’s worth noting Gore has not backed either Clinton or Obama so far, and a recent report indicated that an endorsement by Gore is looking less likely. Former advisers suggest the Nobel Prize catapulted Gore to a new national and international standing that could possibly be tarnished by taking sides in the primary battle.
