Fighting the War on Error

YES! Gore's film wins, but no announcement

10:48: "Yes!" I shout it out loud and proud - Al Gore's film, An Inconvenient Truth, has won best documentary. Director Davis Guggenheim (above, at mic) invited Al Gore on stage, and he went up. No big announcement, though. As I've written before, I'm still holding out hope. It is relatively early, but if he doesn't get on board soon, he will be much to far behind in raising money, which would damage his candidacy.

Still a sweet night, though. Now, I'm just hoping for Etheridge and Scorsese.

Congratulations, Davis and Al - you've both done a valuable, important public service.
