From Taiwan's Taipei Times (http://www.taipeitimes.com/News/taiwan/archives/2007/06/27/2003367023):


Former US vice president Al Gore will not be able to make it to Taiwan this September to address the issue of global warming, Democratic Progressive Party Legislator Tien Chiu-chin ( 田秋堇 ) said yesterday. Tien, who invited Gore to visit Taiwan to promote awareness on global warming, told reporters yesterday that she received an e-mail from the Harry Walker Agency, which has the exclusive right to arrange Gore's speeches, saying that Gore had canceled all his scheduled events in the next six months. The visit to Taiwan had been postponed to next year, she added. Tien said the reason for the cancelation was that Gore was considering a presidential bid.
That's big news if true. Has anyone heard of Gore canceling other appearances? If this report is correct, it should be obvious very soon.

Having Gore in the race would certainly add entertainment value. Also, if Gore jumps in, can John Kerry be far behind?

The party won't let Kerry run. Gore entering the race would be a death blow to Obama. The people in the party that won't vote for Hillary now have another viable alternative in Gore and Gore has already demonstrated that he can do well in a general election.

I thought this thread was about Obama. Well he was in town
this weekend, for 25 bucks a pop.

He sure was. I wanted to go see him, but unfortunately, I had some work to do.

Evidently, it's good enough to win the popular vote.

Yeah, but he's not the same Algore...he's the new, improved, crazier Algore.

But, hey, we'll see.

Polls show that if Gore entered the race he would win the Democratic nomination
