1. Well, I'd like to hope not
It would be kind of a cheap commentary on a serious issue. But I'm sure that there are.

4. In this brief interview I heard today
I heard the bookies are overwhelmingly betting on Gore.

http://www.here-now.org/shows/2007/10/20071011_13.asp

They speculated whether or not this would help him or hurt him.

I never comprehended the complexities of the process before hearing this. It's really quite informative but not at all conclusive.

6. The odds changed over night
betsafe.com had him with second best odds yesterday. Today he is the favorite.
2.65 today 3.5 yesterday

Paddypower.com changed from 5-2 for Gore yesterday to 13-8 today.
