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

Maybe, on one of Teddy's better days.
LMAO...
Could you imagine if he were to run! A great campaign would be to put Hitler and him side by side giving speeches.
He betrayed this country! He played on our hopes!
"You will have Global Warming... it is my destiny!"
Maybe one of the lame donkeys will pick Al as a running mate, that way he could enjoy being the whipping boy all over again. Meanwhile, he waits for the call...
Al invented the 2008 election.
What a buffoon. He isn't running because no one will vote for him--even in his own party.
Al sold his soul to run with Clinton in '92. He supported Clinton in Dec. '98 during the impeachment.
Now, he's a washed up loser, and the Clintons are on the top of the world.
Good call,Al!
All I can think of is Marlon Brando from On the Waterfront, and him saying "I could have been somebody. I could have been a contender" when I see that picture.
How fitting.
He'll run...there isn't anyone else.
"If you allow someone like Saddam Hussein to get nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, chemical weapons, biological weapons, how many people is he going to kill with such weapons?
He's already demonstrated a willingness to use these weapons. He poison-gassed his own people.
He used poison gas and other weapons of mass destruction against his neighbors. This man has no compunction about killing lots and lots of people...."
-- Al Gore, Dec. 16, 1998
No Algore in 2008? I am deeply saddened. Deeply.
Perfecting the most psychotic speaking style in American politics.
Hear, hear. But you have to admit he's the type of clown that is entertaining. I love his speeches were he goes into black preacher mode.
America looks at Gore and Kerry as losers. Nothing will change that.
Our enemy seaks weakness but clinging to the illusion to solve problems just doesn't fly anymore. Negotiating with thugs is pointless.
DARN NAB IT!!! Boy, 2008 is going to be a lot more boring.
Oh, darn, that is upsetting. /sarc
"I'm enjoying what I'm doing,...Oh Yeah...Cigar Store Indian...
ROFLMAO!
