I got a surprising e-mail from former Virginia governor, centrist Democrat Mark Warner. (Actually, I, and however many thousands of folks on his Forward Together PAC e-newsletter, received the same form e-mail message entitled "Thank You".)
The e-mail basically said: I'm out like Foley. (Okay, not "out"-out, but "gone" out.)
That's right, Warner's bowing out of a 2008 presidential bid, which probably is a huge relief for Senator Clinton, who now has no real competition -- regardless of whether Kerry throws his hat in the ring again or not -- assuming Obama can resist sitting this one out.
Of course, this news begs the question: Will Warner's decision have any influence on whether Gore enters the race?
For an interesting peek into virtual ruminations on a real Gore bid, check out MB Williams' blog post on this subject.
MB Williams is the campaign manager of Draft Gore 2008 PAC, which, oddly enough, has no direct affiliation with the former two-time VP, Albert A. Gore, Jr.
Stay tuned!!! . . .
