The AP a few weeks ago "reported" that Gore told an audience in Tokyo that he would not run for President in 2008. Now the Agence France Press is reporting that Gore has told an audience -- this time in London -- that he is not running for President in 2008.
It will be interesting to hear whether this story can be debunked, like the last one. But given the quote in the story -- "I don't have plans to be a candidate again and though I haven't... completely ruled out any possibility of running at some point in the future I don't expect to and cannot perceive circumstances in which I would" -- it seems to be getting clearer that Gore will not run. One has to wonder about that ellipsis, though.
Where does that leave Gore supporters, like me? I'm inching closer to Edwards, but keeping my eye on Vilsack. Don't talk to me about Clark. He'll make a great Vice President this time around. But what I would really like to know is whether anyone has information that the MSM is getting this story wrong, yet again.
