Why is he not mentioned?

2. Because

as much as some people might want him to, he has shown absolutely no real signs of running.

"More and more people are asking, 'What about Al Gore?' " says Steve Grossman, former chairman of the Democratic National Committee. "If Al Gore were to announce for president, he would be a first-tier candidate on day one. Instead of it being Hillary and Obama on the covers of the national magazines, you would have three faces there."

But when one friend asked him recently about another campaign, Gore didn't dismiss the question out of hand. "We'll see how things go," he replied.

Another Democratic source says that in recent weeks, the former vice president's camp has quietly put out feelers to presidential politicos, asking whether they are committed for 2008.

5. I Know...Brilliant Strategy Isn't It?

Why should he get into the thick of things now? It's not like he's some unknown. The longer he waits the better. Mid-Late '07 will give him more than enough time, and he has my vote already.

3. Means nothin' without Gore n/t

6. Gore's not in it. Gore's not in it. Gore's not in it.

7. But DAMN good thing Kos includes "Mike Gravel"!! Wouldn't want...

... an UNFAIR sampling of who Democrats want to be President.

Sheesh, Kos - craptacular.
