At Ballyhooed Reunion Of Top Gore Aides, A Sense That Al Isn't Running - TPM Cafe

Excerpt:
"Indeed, Gore himself wasn't in attendance. "It would have given the dinner a political overtone and media attention" if Gore had attended, our attendee says. Indeed, several of those present even teased one longtime Gore backer, H.E. "Sonny" Cauthen Jr., for being quoted recently in The Washington Times saying he was holding out to see whether Gore was running, the source says.

Among those longtime Gore loyalists who munched on a buffet of sandwiches and salmon at the Knight home: Longtime powerhouse Dem fundraiser and Democratic National Committeeman Robert Zimmerman; Knight's wife, Gail Britton; Tom Hendrickson, the former North Carolina Democratic Party chair; Mary Pat Bonner, founder of the Bonner Group; Dr. Richard Boxer, a Gore adviser on health care; Alan Kessler, a former Gore fundraiser; and Roy Neal, former Gore chief of staff."
