Gore Begins Training For 2004 Election In Remote Mountain Cabin

Bush. “Gotta get in shape,” said Gore, running up a hill with a log strapped to his back. “Gonna beat him this time.” Gore, who is almost back down to his campaigning weight of 245, then worked on his debate reflexes by chasing chickens around a pen.
