1. Seriously? He could run for governor?
After just moving there?

Or were you just kidding?

And, would that affect his running for Pres in 08?

3. Well.... Not sure about THIS election
Shame on me for not knowing those details. But "IF" he were to run in this or a future election for Governor.. I'd certainly vote him..

Sorry for not being more clear.. :pals:

2. What are the residencey requirements for CA governor?
Most likely he's moving to CA because CA seemed to be appreciative of him. It's also on the other side of the country, away from the Clintons, who live in New York.

10. Remember, his Current TV network is in The City.
"Al might prefer to have a view from the Oval Office, but the stunning sights he gets from his new condo must be a good consolation. From his vantage point, he can even see his new television studios across town," says Matthews, speaking of the "Current TV" headquarters on Townsend Street.

He may not be planning to run for anything just yet -- but we could always start a "Draft Gore, Not My Son" movement!
