My position may be validated by the fact that Mr. Gore does seem to be making a comeback of sorts. (Recall I predict Mr. Gore will be our next pres. after Mr. Bush serves one term.)
Mr. Gore has lost some weight and he has lost the beard. He made a speech recently to some of his supporters where he appeared as strong as ever and as ready as ever to fight Mr. Bush again in 2004. (You can read about it yourself, if you want.)
