Pollster Peter Brown pours cold water on the Draft Gore movement that Jim mentioned Thursday, along with the Gingrich '08 fantasy:

Simply put, neither man is very well thought of among the mass of voters who decide the November election. And, not to put too fine a point on it, Americans don't turn over the Oval Office to people they don't like.
An important difference: Conservatives who want Newt to run generally don't think he can win; they just want an articulate conservative voice in the race to nudge the frontrunners to the right. Liberals who want Gore to run are absolutely serious about a 2000 do-over.
