Think of all they would have to talk about, if Al Gore and George W. Bush could go out for a burger to savor their victories this week and resist the temptation to rip each other's throat out. Who would have thought last summer that Bush would have the near death experience, or that Gore, in the course of flattening Bill Bradley, would manage to climb to a dead heat with Bush after lagging 17 points behind in January--and have even more money left over?

But McCain certainly gets to savor the moment...
