From TNR’s Seyward Darby: “Looks like Al Gore won’t be joining Team Obama. A spokesperson says, he ‘does not intend to seek or accept any formal position in government.’”

Alas, I sigh, a great Gore admirer, who once thought Gore-Obama sounded awfully good, and who thought he was (and who may still think he is) “the best person for the White House.” (I wrote about it here, my friend Creature here.)

Though perhaps he can do more good for the world outside of government — as an activist and advocate, as a conscience — than in any formal role.
