Al Gore is going to win an Academy Award tonight, and many people are speculating that he'll use the occasion to announce that he's a candidate for the presidency in '08.
I don't see that happening. It's too soon, and I don't expect Gore to announce one way or the other until December of this year or January of '08. If it's a go, he'll probably run as a Democrat, not an independent.
He'll hit the rest of the field like a rolling boulder, if he decides to run.
The prestige conferred by his winning an Oscar will be campaign gold. It's immense.
If there's a more qualified candidate, I don't know who it would be.
