...finally, finally, finally, he's no longer number two. Imagine being a respectable, monogamous, married gentleman from a well-established southern family. Now imagine spending eight years as the subordinate to a randy Arkansas governor. Finally, Al Gore is no longer identified as the President's drone, I mean, clone. Clinton...
...Expect this one to get nasty. McCollum is already painting Nelson as a "Clinton clone," and pols who have faced Nelson before insist that he "likes close fighting with a dull knife," says a G.O.P. leader. Both candidates estimate they'll need more than $10 million to win--especially Nelson, who recently jetted around the peninsula with Clinton in Air Force One. Democratic insiders say Clinton has a keen interest in this race--namely, revenge against McCollum--which means McCollum may be the only politician this year to have a bigger Clinton problem than Al Gore...
...conceding Lieberman's strength, the Bush campaign undercut the message it had been sending for the past several weeks: that Gore is an unprincipled Clinton clone whose Veep pick will be just another example of low-road behavior.

In Fantasy, it's used for each one of the movie's estimated 1,500 shots in which any of its hundreds of characters move their body...
...Gore has an opportunity to make his own statement against a gray backdrop. He'll have the spotlight, and he'll have to show us his moves. He can match greybeards with George Mitchell; he can gamble on Florida with Bob Graham; he can clone his better self with Evan Bayh. He could even get weird with Warren Christopher. He'd be risking it with a woman, because this is still a country that elects men to its highest office. Would he drop a bomb like Jesse Ventura, thinking he could harness him? Maybe he'll convince natty banker Robert...
