Gore
I agree with Kos on this one: if Gore decides to get in, he's my man in 2008.
And maybe there is some hope, if former Gore campaign manager Donna Brazile is right:
But could former Vice President Al Gore be waiting to make a dramatic
entrance into the 2008 presidential race, especially if he wins an Oscar next
month?
His former campaign manager, Donna Brazile, strongly implied that
possibility while speaking at Moravian College in Bethlehem Tuesday night.
''Wait till Oscar night,'' Brazile told an audience of about 100 people at
Haupert Student Union. ''I tell people: 'I'm dating. I haven't fallen in love
yet.' On Oscar night, if Al Gore has slimmed down 25 or 30 pounds, Lord
knows.''...
Before making her Oscar night comment, she said she was ''so proud'' of
Gore's work to bring attention to global warming.
''I believe [Gore] is ready for this moment,'' Brazile said in an interview
after her speech. ''He is a good leader. I think he can be one of the few
leaders who can bring this country together.''
She acknowledged it will be a tough decision for Gore, noting Kerry's
announcement last week to bow out of the race. Gore believes he is now doing his
life's work, Brazile said. However, she conceded that Gore might be able to do
more about global climate change from inside the Oval Office. He has already
made an impact by forcing President Bush to talk about the issue, she
said.
Brazile's not the only one who's made a comment about Gore slimming down being an indicator of his future intentions. A lot of people have said: see if Gore is svelte by the fall. If so, then he's probably running.
