WI: No Hillary, but Kathleen Sebelius runs in '08?

So what if Hilliary Clinton didn't run in 2008 (a family death, her own death, etc), and instead Kathleen Sebelius ran, through her own ambition, a "Draft Sebelius" campaign, or whatnot? Could she beat Obama in the primaries? Could she run a "unity/moderate" sort of primary campaign? And if she wins in the primary, would she have as easy a time as Obama had in the general election?
 
No, she wouldn't win. If Hillary doesn't run, then Gore likely does. Sebelius has serious political baggage from her tenure as insurance commissioner and would be seen as too conservative for the Dem base.

Why would Al Gore run again? I guess he could gain some traction with the film he made and the idea of "Won't be cheated again!", but would he really be inclined to run and win the Democratic primaries?
