Former Vice President Al Gore wins the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination after Hillary Clinton drops out of the presidential election. He faces New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Who wins?

Is Gore unelectable now? He served as a congressman (1977-1985), U.S. Senator from Tennessee (1984-1993), presidential candidate (1988), potential presidential candidate (2004, 2008, 2016-chose not to run) U.S. vice president under Bill Clinton (1993-2001), Democratic presidential nominee (2000). Gore should do better against a Christie.

I think a Gore vs. Christie debate would have been entertaining, because both are passionate. I would love to see the first debate.

The people want more of a fresh face in the white house. Gore would be even more of a picture of Washington corruption than Clinton is, and he doesn't have her biggest asset - her gender.

Considering he's been out of Washington for a while, I don't think he's "a picture of Washington" compared to Hillary. And if Clinton's biggest asset is her gender, than Christie's is just his biggest, his weight. This is really how your assessment sounds...

Switch Minnesota and New Jersey and I think I agree.

It would be sad for Gore to lose again in a presidential election, but it happens.

This may be one fo the few times both candidates lose their home state (though it's probably a lot more likely for Christie to win New Jersey than for Gore to win Tennessee).

MN is more likely to flip than WI, IMO. Polling and Walker's approvals agree.

Had to double check that this thread wasn't from 2013.

Gore's always been unelectable. ANY decent Republican should be able to beat him decisively (300 EV or so).
Always? After all, Gore only lost Florida and thus the U.S. Presidency by 537 votes back in 2000!

Former Vice President Al Gore/Senator Kirsten Gilibrand: 305 EV. (50.97%)
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie/Businesswoman Meg Whitman: 233 EV. (47.32%)
