Gore, whose last-minute media surge obliterated the ill-funded Gephardt, could point to the six Super Tuesday states he carried as evidence that you can run for President and still get a good tan. But for Gore, who played possum while the others scrambled up North, his Southern victories could prove as evanescent as Bob Dole's I'm-one-of-you Iowa sweep.
