you must be watching BBC (big buncha crap). Vice-Presidents who run for
President of the USA and fail don't get a second chance, so if Gore loses he
won't be back. But I don't blame him at all for using whatever resources he

hope the victor will fight so vehemently to cut taxes and return the
so-called surplus to the voters once he gets in. Ha. Did you say something
about being cynical?
