An '08 free-for-all
This election cycle creates a significant chance -- the first in modern memory -- that both parties could string out their presidential nominations until their conventions next summer. And if it's a convention free-for-all, delegates could as easily turn to alternatives as not. Note: the author is with the conservative American Enterprise Institute

Gore's Electoral Footprint
Even if Gore does not run, he can relish in establishing an "electoral footprint" on the candidates. For they are sounding increasingly more liberal and less Republican-lite. Their comments reveal this. Clinton said that "we haven't really seriously addressed this incredibly important issue of global warming and energy efficiency."

How Obama can keep Gore out of the race
This is the third of a three-part series on how likely presidential aspirant Al Gore subverted the White House Commission on Aviation Safety and Security that he himself chaired and, by so doing, threw the doors open to the terrorists of 9/11. Note: WorldNetDaily, a very conservative news source, may be trying to create another fake controversy to use against Al -- should he decide to run. Watch for this allegation to surface elsewhere.

Polls find global warming generating heat
It wasn't so long ago that Al Gore's campaign advisers were telling him not to talk about global warming during his 2000 presidential bid for fear that he would turn off voters. That's hardly the case now.

California will have not one, but 53 primaries
One of these days, some brilliant political operative working for one of today's dozen or so major-party presidential candidates will realize that apart from its new Feb. 5 date, California's primary election presents unique opportunities for anyone who wants to employ a little shoe leather. For unlike what the name implies, the California primary is not really one big statewide election. The rules are slightly different on the Republican and Democratic sides, but the essence is the same: California is holding not one primary, but 53 small ones — one for each congressional district.
