Former Gore Staffers Mounting Draft Al Gore Campaign

It seems that a group of former Gore backers is meeting to strategize ways to encourage him to enter the race:

Veterans of Al Gore's past are quietly assembling a campaign to draft the former
vice president into the 2008 presidential race _ despite his repeated statements that he's not running. His top policy adviser from his 2000 presidential campaign and other key supporters met Thursday in Boston to mull a potential Gore campaign. The participants and Gore's Nashville office both said Gore, who is in London, is not involved.

One of the involved persons, Dylan Malone mounted a draft Gore campaign in 2002 and was asked to stop by Gore himself. The difference now:

In 2002, Gore asked Malone to stop a draft effort he had begun; Malone did.
Malone started up again and, so far, Gore hasn't waved him off.

Many interested folks would like to see Gore get into the race. He currently sits 4th in New Hampshire polls at 8 percent. His star will only get brighter as he is focused on at the Academy Awards and Nobel Prize ceremonies. He would be able to raise money quickly and shake things up. Will he run? Stay tuned...
