Stop with this bullcrap about Al Gore "getting back" at the Clintons by endorsing Dean (the Clintons are backing Wesley Clark - no big secret). Al Gore has no reason to "get" Bill and Hillary. Al Gore DOES however have every reason in the world to "get" George W. Bush for screwing Gore out of the 2000 election.
Also, stop this bullcrap about Al Gore backing Dean because Gore knows Dean has no chance and it paves the way for a Gore run in 2008. Use common sense, people. How can backing a "loser" help his chances in 2008? It can't. It's that simple.
We're not as cynical and sinister as Karl Rove. Stop it.
Al Gore is backing Howard Dean because he likes Howard Dean. Take it at face value because all these other crackpot theories don't have a cell's worth of substance to them. Period.
