JOE TO AL: THANKS FOR NOTHING. Gore to endorse Howard Dean's candidacy.
UPDATE: Political cartoonists weigh in here and here.

Former vice president Al Gore plans to endorse Howard Dean for president today, according to Democratic sources, giving the insurgent candidate the kind of establishment backing his campaign has been lacking.What I find curious is why anyone should care who Al Gore endorses?
