Al Gore to endorse Dean

Sure, the biggest news of the campaign so far comes down right before I have to go into a two hour meeting. It certainly made it hard to concentrate on work while I was sitting there wondering what was going on with this.

This is easily the 3rd most important endorsement Dean could snag (2nd if you think of Bill & Hill as a single endorsement) and highlights the growing divide within the Democratic party establishment. On one side are the remnants of the Clinton team and on the other is the rising star that is Dean. Now, numerically speaking, the Clinton's out-number Dean. But Dean has the momentum while the Clinton's are standing still. If they aren't careful, the party will rush on past them and they will miss out on all the fun.
