Eleanor Clift speculates that Al Gore is secretly running for president, his repeated denials notwithstanding.
A leading indicator of his intentions could be Gore’s waistline. The theory is that slimming down will be a signal he intends to run. “He has lost a few pounds, and Hillary can read into that what she wants,” says a longtime adviser who declined to be identified discussing his boss’s figure.
It may, however, simply be a case of regression to the mean.

To use the parlance of his present obsession, I don't think voters will be warming up to him.
But, pound for pound, he may be the best presidential candidate out there.
