The Oregon police looking into the allegations that Al Gore groped a massage therapist have decided to drop the case because of a “lack of evidence.” The woman isn’t talking any more. Even the National Inquirer is being tight-lipped (they broke the story). Gore’s spokesperson put out a statement re-affirming innocence and applauding the police’s conclusion. While I was initially critical of Gore’s silence on this matter when it broke, it now looks like the matter will soon be forgotten and Gore’s reputation will remain intact. Gore’s brand as a speaker and spokesperson will suffer no long-term damage from the incident, though his enemies will forever think of him as the “sex-crazed poodle.”
