As I'm sure you know by now, Al Gore is one of the winners of the Nobel Peace Prize, due to his campaign against global warming. Here are a few updates from around the web, some pro some con. First, from Telegraph, who focus on the idea that he might run for office:

Supporters of Mr Gore, who lost the 2000 election to George W Bush by the closest margin in US history, have never given up hope that he would throw his hat into the ring.

But the increasingly strong performance of Hillary Clinton, the former first lady, as the party's leading candidate is likely to have led Mr Gore to believe that he could not win the nomination.

He is furthermore enjoying the fame and influence - which come without the tribulations of electoral politics - brought by the Nobel and his Oscar-winning documentary An Inconvenient Truth.

A former aide told the Politico newspaper that Mr Gore was envisaging a role as a climate change guru if Mrs Clinton became president.

A poll by Gallup yesterday found that the Nobel prize had not increased support for a Gore presidential bid.

Asked if they would like to see him stand next year, respondents said no by a margin of 54 per cent to 41 per cent - about the same as in March.

Not surprisingly, Foxnews has a different take on this story:

Not everyone is celebrating Al Gore's Nobel Peace Prize for his global warming efforts. Retired climatologist Timothy Ball tells Cybercast News Service that Gore's movie - "An Inconvenient Truth" - is a "wonderful piece of propaganda" that relies on "visual imagery and gimmickry."

Earlier this week a British judge ruled that the movie had at least nine major errors and could not be shown to students without balancing information. Thursday, the BBC alleged that Gore knew his movie presented false facts, but was afraid any uncertainty would fuel global warming skeptics.

JunkScience.com publisher Steve Milloy says if that is true, "Gore should win the Nobel Prize for propaganda." And Czech President Vaclav Klaus says he is surprised Gore would get a peace prize, noting "The relationship between his activities and world peace is unclear and indistinct."

So, are you pro or con, Telegraph or Fox?
