　　Former US. Vice President A1 Gore, who came close to winning the presidency two years ago, said he will not run in 2004, and probably will not have another opportunity to seek the White House.

　　Though Gore would have been a frightening Democratic(民主党的)main runner, his decision to give up the 2004 race probably helped his party' s chances in the general election against President George W. Bush, Democrats said.

　　Many did not want to see Bush－Gore Ⅱ.

　　“The last campaign was an extremely difficult one,” Gore told CBS TV show “60 Minutes”. on Sunday.

　　While saying he still had the energy and drive to run again, Gore recognized, “There are a lot of people within the Democratic Party who felt exhausted (by the 2000 race)… who felt like, OK, ‘I don't want to go through that again.’ And I'm frankly sensitive to that feeling.”

　　In nearly two dozen interviews after Gore announced his plans, Democrats dutifully claimed their party had lost a top candidate, but one after another, they praised Gore for taking an early exit from a primary race he could have won, sparing them a repeat.

　　Gore, 54, said he was making his decision “in the full understanding that it probably means that I will never have another opportunity to run for president.”

　　Party activists(激进主义分子)blamed Gore for losing despite a booming economy and eight years of a Democratic administration. Gore even lost his home state of Tennessee; a victory there would have given him the White House.

　　Schwarzenegger won the California Governorship on Oct 7, 48.7 % of the voters (投票人)vote for him. Californians see him as the personification(化身)of the American Dream.

　　The film which will be called See Arnold Run is expected to hit the big screen next summer.
