29. This is not the time to be playing Hamlet
And all the big donors, as well as most small donors, would be committed to a candidate by then.

And if Gore really waits even later than September, he will be seen as the "stop (fill-in name)" candidate. I don't think that Gore would want to be cast in the same thankless role as Jerry Brown in 1992 (to stop Clinton), or Pennsylvania Governor William Scranton in 1964 (to stop Goldwater).
