Length of this campaign

I think one thing Gore & Co. have been figuring out this past summer is how to run a campaign that will get noticed and be in the political press spotlight, but that will be a campaign he WANTS to run. No dirty money, no corporate sponsors, no 15-second sound bytes, no bowing to the lowest denominator. He wants to reform campaign strategy. He said so in Assault on Reason. I don't think he necessarily meant he wants to reform it himself by leading an example of how a campaign could go, but all the better if he does. Lead by example. Wasn't that another point of his book? The leaders should be people you look up to and emulate. He doesn't need to waste time or money starting earlier than he has to. I agree that I'll let him and his skilled people know when that time is. They clearly know WAY more about this than I do!
