Gore Wins Nobel, Still Trails Ron Paul

Filed under: Election 2008

Thursday, before the Nobel Peace Prize was on its way to Al Gore's bedside table, we took a look at the former vice president's status with Google Trends. In short, he trailed both the Nobel and GOP contender Ron Paul.

So how's he doing today?

Like this:

Blue for Al Gore, red for the Nobel, orange for Ron Paul
