Soon she divorced her husband--and, figuratively anyway, Gingrich too. "It became clear to me that Newt didn't care about the issues I cared about," she says now, "that all his talk, sometimes very eloquent, about poverty and caring for the least among us was just window dressing." She abandoned Washington for Los Angeles, where she shares an Italianate mansion with her two preteen daughters. She is impatient with her old Republican friends who say she has moved to the left (those old categories again). "I have become radicalized, but it's not as though I'm suddenly praising...
...child, I was made to look out the window of a moving car and appreciate the beautiful scenery, with the result that now I don't care much for nature. I prefer parks, ones with radios going chuckawaka chuckawaka and the delicious whiff of bratwurst and cigarette smoke...

The danger for him now is that he'll have too long to think: more than a week until the GOP lovefest lets out, more than two until Los Angeles. That's his window, and he'll be tempted to jump in as soon as he can. But with the Bush announcement more of a thud than a bang, Gore can also take his time, wait until the week before L.A., and step up into the spotlight as the Al Gore he truly...
