New Research Tool Predicts Landslide for Gore in 2008, Defeat for Clinton
2006-06-01
A new behavior prediction tool is forecasting a landslide victory for former Democratic Vice President Al Gore in the 2008 presidential election. However, should Hillary Clinton gain the Democratic nomination, any potential Republican challenger will win the presidency.

These are among the surprising findings reported by Dr. James N. Herndon, a media psychologist with Media Psychology Affiliates. Using a new research tool called Affective Encryption Analysis, Dr. Herndon led an investigation into the likely outcome of the 2008 Presidential election.

“Affective Encryption Analysis is a new behavior forecasting tool that looks at how our feelings and emotions can influence our long-term actions,” explains Dr. Herndon. “Traditional survey techniques are not very good at predicting trends. Affective Encryption Analysis was developed to dig deeper into the emotional factors that control our future behaviors.”

#17  No, no, not VPOTUS Hillary - Iff Dubya doesn't resolve or mostly resolve the Iran, Syria, North Korea, and Taiwan crises by 2008, I strongly doubt the Dems will want to win the WH in 2008. IMHO, the Dems will just "go thru the motions" of having a Dem POTUS contender which they will NOT in reality want to see win, but focus efforts instead on the Congress. SOLVING REAL-WORLD PROBS AND ISSUES IS FOR THE GOP-RIGHT - SPEND SPEND SPEND SOMEONE ELSE'S MONIES and TIPPY TOEING NAKED THRU WAVY GRAVY TULIPS is for the DemoLefties - you know, EQUALISM.

Cuter than Hil, smarter than Skerry, NOT from an unsophisticated area (i.e. outside the northeast) like Bayh! And look at all of that productive Senatorial service!

#13  They sit around naked in a circle to do this "research" I am sure. They are happy to give you the answer you or they want as long as you are paying.

#8  Apparently Hillary has collected so much money that their is little left for the other Democratic presidential challengers.

I suppose that some are rich enough to pay their own way.

#6  Computers tend to favor their own. The Gorebot has not gained any charisma since he's been out of the public eye and has managed to gain a lunatic spittle along his lips. He is not electable.

#5  An amusing way to strip the enthusiasts of funds that might otherwise be spent more effectively. And certainly the official voting results in two years' time will help the media psychologists refine their analytical methodologies. So all in all, not a bad thing.
