Now that Al Gore has hooked up with Alfred Nobel, everyone wants to know: Is he or isn't he ... planning to run for President? Nobel's given him a bump. You can see it in the polls. You can see it when you look at him. A.Go's cheeks are rosy and his tummy is bulging. (Good thing he lost the beard. That would be way too freaky.)
So why the silence? Is he waiting to tell his family? Is he stressing over which friend to tell first? (He should just take them out to lunch and announce it to all of them at once.) Or has he been too busy vomiting?
The chatter is only getting louder. Come on, Al, tell us. There's a massive baby shower waiting to happen. (Note to attendees: No gifts over $2300.)
Vote below - then read why Al Gore is not just another Rita Moreno.

78. Ugh.. let's try this again!
the "Gorefecta" (you saw it here first?) than think he will run for President again.
Maybe Al Gore IS not just another Rita Moreno...
Lovey?? Oh Lovey, you were right, that was an imposter who was trying to kiss you in the dark bungalow last night and not yours truly, dear. You know I prefer to keep our nuptuals sacred by sleeping in double beds. I suspect it was that horny Gilligan.. ah.. again! SKIPPER!!!!!

79. John Giza - The Ann Coulter fantasy is amazing. How quickly can we get this animated?
This is FINN! (nee Finn) - Gorefecta is brilliant. Register it with the Writers Guild stat.
Marsha - Thanks for watching Sunday Morning. I ran into Morley Safer in the bathroom at CBS before I taped my segment. I'm a big fan of his, even though he told me that my pocket handkerchief was folded in a "fussy" manner. (No joke.)

80. Richard Nixon used to say that if a candidate started to lose weight, he was getting ready to run for President.
Looking at Al Gore, he has put on quite a few pounds since 2000. My wife saw him on a newscast and said, "Good Lord! When did Al Gore become old and fat?!"
So, unless Al's plan is to appeal to the ever-expanding demographic, overweight voters, I don't think he's running.

81. Thanks Mo!
I really should start capitalizing on my ideas.
I just love FREE speech though!!
Here is a fun "Gorefecta" game:
Take the letters of the "Gorefecta" awards and rearrange them to form as many words as you can. (E)mmy, (G)rammy, (T)ony, (O)scar, and (N)obel.
My favorite is TENGO, as in Al Gore does the TENGO after winning all 5 awards. Or in spanish he can say "Yo TENGO muchas premios" which means "I have many awards".
I think it does, anyway. Where the hell is Miguel?
Mo needs you Spain!

82. Whoa, just think, by Gore being declared the loser in the 2000 election we have all of the advantages of:
1. Being united by the uniter.
2. Having America's reputation soar to new heights
3. Mission Accomplished
4. Having Iraq as our 51st state.
5. Promoting free camps where torture or even the inability to ask why you are being imprisoned (Habeous Corpus) is your daily right.
6. Wiretap free phones.
7. Safe cities.
8. Safe bridges.
9. Cheney
10. Lynn Cheney
11. Being told the truth by our government.
Now for all of you who apparently hate Al Gore, be proud of your accomplishments, of your sentiments and of your eloquent criticism of Al. And be thankful for all of the wonderful things that you enjoy due to his defeat by our Supreme Court.
