Murfreesboro, Tenn. -- Former Vice President Al Gore said Monday he's not planning to run for president in 2008 but hasn't ruled out a future in politics.
"I'm enjoying what I'm doing," Gore told an audience at Middle Tennessee State University, where he gave a lecture on global warming.
"I'm not planning to be a candidate again. I haven't reached a stage in my life where I'm willing to say I will never consider something like this. But I'm not saying that to be coy; I'm just saying that to be honest that I haven't reached that point."
Gore, a Democrat, in 2000 lost to President Bush

His staff told him the speech in Saudi Arabia would turn up as primary fodder.

Don't give the lefties any ideas for sloganeering...
Nobody wants to see 'Moore-Gore' in '08 (or ever).

My point was that a SF newspaper actually admitted that Gore lost. They didn't say he won but the Supreme Court selected Bush. That is what we are used to hearing.

His staff told him the speech in Saudi Arabia would turn up as primary fodder.Used against him in the primaries? Do you mean that there are potential candidates who disagree with what Gore said, and could say so without killing their own prospects?

#1 reason to be grateful for the Electoral CollegeUnfortunately, Rep. Jim Leach, R(INO)Iowa didn't see it that way.
It was that bill which convinced me the esteemed Mr. Leach is utterly clueless.

Gore won't run. Even with his handicaps of obligate dishonesty and delusions normalcy, he knows that the Dems would never elect him in a primary.
That nod will go to Hillary Rodham.
