'New York' Does the Impossible
We gotta hand it to New York magazine this week. We've supported the guy before, naturally; we've voted for him in primaries and generals, and we've given him money and stuck buttons on our bags and hung posters in our windows. But we've never actually liked Al Gore. (Has anyone — other than Tipper, of course, and our yellow-dog mother?) But now, thanks to John Heilemann's New York cover story, we actually find ourselves a bit enamored of the guy. Never mind a general-excellence Ellie; this is truly an accomplishment.
