The Post thinks Gore might get back in. An "Anti-War" speech shows the trouble we might have been in if he had been elected.

GORE PLANS NYU ANTI-WAR SPEECH

August 5, 2003 -- WASHINGTON - Amid talk he's being urged to jump back into the presidential race, Al Gore has arranged to speak out on Iraq to a large anti-war group at New York University on Thursday.

A Gore spokeswoman insisted, "Truly, honestly, he's not planning on getting back into the race," but the former vice president's speech to the organization MoveOn should only fuel the speculation.

It will be Gore's first speech on Iraq since he came out against the Bush administration's push toward war last September.

A MoveOn spokesman said Gore recently called the group and asked if he could address its members. He's set to speak to about 600 members at the Kimmel Center for University Life in Washington Square.

MoveOn, a national anti-war group that boasts 120,000 members in the New York City area, recently gave Democratic anti-war candidate Howard Dean a big boost by conducting an online poll that Dean won.

Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-Conn.) who was Gore's running mate in 2000, had vowed to stay out of the race until the former vice president decided he wouldn't run.

He said yesterday he doubts Gore will jump in. But regardless, Lieberman said he's in to stay.

"I've crossed the bridge," he said.
