3. It would have amazing symbolic value. Gore has the temperament to step up
and do what must be done at the right moment - especially when the situation is difficult - so you might be right.

Still... I won't make any predictions until I see him in action.

Obama has said that while he would like to have Gore's endorsement he doesn't expect it because after winning a Nobel Peace Prize stepping into Presidential politics is a step down. I agree, but I think his role would be different if the race had been very clearly decided and Gore was stepping in just to underscore that fact.

I am pleased to hear Indiana come up often in discussion as the end of Clinton's campaign -- I worked so freaking hard that it took me a week to recuperate. I am headed to Kentucky to canvass on Sunday because...? Because I like to um...dream the impossible dream?
