62. I think Gore's support will be VERY substantial if he gets in.
Not only did he win in 2000, the guy got more votes than Bill Clinton ever did. More votes than any Democrat ever HAS.

I'm going to wait until September or so before I give up on the guy, but you're right about one thing- sooner or later, we'll know if he's running or not.
