Speaking at the Democratic State Conference dinner for Governor Corzine last night, Al Gore reminded Democrats just how much elections matter:Calling him the "Real Deal", Gore had this to say about Corzine:
"You have a man who has the knowledge, the experience, the commitment, the compassion and the record of solid accomplishments fighting every single hour of every single day for New Jersey. Let's re-elect Jon Corzine," Gore said as the crowd of 500 cheered.
And Gore also had something for people thinking of going with Chris Daggett:
Gore dismissed the third candidate in the race , independent Chris Daggett, a former Department of Environmental Protection commissioner who has gotten the Sierra Club's endorsement , as having no chance against the better known and better financed candidates.
"You could also throw your vote away and pretend you're not doing it," said Gore. "Let me tell you how that works out."
