According to CNN, Al Gore has decided against running for the Democratic nomination because he believes Hillary Clinton can’t be stopped at this point:
WASHINGTON (CNN) — A source involved in Gore’s past political runs told CNN that he definitely has the ambition to use the peace prize as a springboard to run for president.
But he will not run, because he won’t take on the political machine assembled by Sen. Hillary Clinton, said the source. If the senator from New York had faltered at all, Gore would take a serious look at entering the race, the source said. But Gore has calculated that Clinton is unstoppable, according to the source.
Based on the polls, it seems that Gore is probably correct in his assessment. Although it would’ve be interesting to see Gore running against the wife of his former boss.
