New from the Humor Network: GORE YIELDS TO BUSH, PROCEEDS WITH CAUTION After receiving high marks on his concession speech, Mr. Gore said that he intends to ride on this wave of success. "I've finally realized my calling," Mr. Gore said in a post-speech interview. "I will continue to serve this country by giving concession speeches from this day forward." Political analysts ane media commentators applauded Mr. Gore's ability to skillfully and graciously declare himself the loser. Not only did he receive a standing ovation, but chants of "One more time!" forced the vice president to return to the podium and concede again. According to his campaign aidses, colleges and universities across America are already interested in having the vice president concede on their campuses. Mr. Gore opened up his speech with a bit of humor. "When I was on the phone with Mr. Bush, I promised him I wouldn't call back this time," Mr. Gore said in his concession speech. But after he was applauded on his dignified style of throwing in the towel, he plans on calling Mr. Bush everyday to concede. "I want him to understand that I fully support him as the 43rd President." He pledged that he would add Bush's phone number to his speed dial first thing in the morning. When asked if he plans on running in the next presidential election,Mr. Gore replied, "I'm not sure if I'm going to run. But, I can promise you this: I will concede." ****************************************************************************************************************************************
