There’s a lot of good blogging about Al Gore’s speech today. See especially Glenn Greenwald, ReddHedd, pessimist at The Left Coaster, Susie Madrak (who was there), plus Peter Daou on the “media coverage.”

Gore’s speech is an excellent read..I’m sure that the righties are going to be sliming Gore with sour grapes.
I just sat and watched Gore’s speech on a videotape made by my Mom, then came directly to the computer to print a transcript. I wish every American could hear his speech ‘live’. The guy is such a contrast with teen-age mentality twisted-ego dress-up-and-pretend-to-be-a-statesman George W. Bush. I kept saying to myself, “Gore should be our President…..damn that Supreme Court!”
