Deniers are now attacking Gore rather than confronting the scientists who say that CO2 is the cause. They keep coming up with the argument that solar is the cause of global warming, when it's been shown so many times that it is not the largest component. We need to strengthen our messaging campaign to erase the message these people give. They should go out the door, and only be allowed in when they come in with better arguments.
