Yet, overwhelmingly, I am left with the impression that policy was wed to the personal in this case. At one time, Gore reportedly didn't even like Dean much. He found him brash and crass -- or so he told others. And aside from the war -- a major aside, I grant you -- Dean has hardly campaigned as a Democratic centrist of the type who would have some appeal in the South, Gore's home region.

Was Gore taking a swipe at Bill Clinton, who some think favors the candidacy of Wes Clark? Was he somehow positioning himself to take on Hillary Clinton in 2008? Was he simply chafing to get back in the arena -- and what better way than to do the unexpected?
