Alternet readers have voted Al Gore their favored presidential candidate. Between this and the Daily Kos poll, it looks like Gore has the coveted Online Lefty vote locked up, should he choose to enter the race.

Inconvenient Job

Al is the best man for the job.  What worries me is that he may be the only man for the job.

In the Best Progressive Book category, David Sirota's Hostile Takeover: How Big Money and Corruption Conquered Our Government -- And How We Take it Back at 27 percent bested new author Glenn Greenwald's How Would a Patriot Act?, the first book published by Working Assets Publishing at 13 percent. Crashing the Gates by Markos Zuniga and Jerome Armstrong came in third at 9 percent.

There was a very tight race for Best Progressive Website. Despite
recent controversies, Truthout.org won with 15 percent, followed by
Common Dreams at 14 percent, Salon 13 percent, Huffington Post 12
percent and Grist 11 percent.

Interesting.
