my fervent wish for this Memorial Day weekend is that . . .
Al Gore will reflect on what just happened in Congress, get royally pissed off, and decide to announce his candidacy sooner rather than later . . .

the support is there, the votes are there, the endorsements are there, the money is there . . . all we need is the candidate . . .

please, Al . . . honor our war dead by entering the race with a promise to end this war! . . .

1. IMHO it may be something like this that does it.
No matter what Hillary and the other Dem Senators say, they caved to Bush, no matter what their token vote was.

2. I would bet this helped to push Gore in that direction.
He was elected President in 2000. What a different world we'd live in today if the SCOTUS hadn't committed a crime and place * in office.

3. although it is unlikely and probably pointless
*something in me wants him to form a third party and say "a pox on both their houses"

politics being "the art of the possible" just sucks.

There are things that are right and things that are wrong. Having to accommodate evil bastards who want things that are wrong sucks. I'm starting to be GLAD I am as old as I am - I won't be around having to watch the world disintegrate as long the young folks

* I wonder if that is in the back of his mind, and part of the reason for holding out... nah, probably not.
