You would think that all those Green millions would have cheered Al up, but no he's still on the campaign trail doing his "I could have been a contender" routine.
Former presidential candidate Al Gore made his pitch to voters on Monday at a Hillary Clinton campaign event in Colorado.
“Take it from me, every vote counts. Trust me on this,” he said with a chuckle to thunderous applause in Boulder. “You can consider me an exhibit A of that proposition. Every single vote counts.”
Bill Clinton's former vice president went on to remind his audience that the 2000 election which he narrowly lost to George W. Bush, despite winning the popular vote, was one of the closest elections in U.S. history.
Gore was brought out to appeal to the youth vote. The youth vote consists of people who were playing kickball when Al Gore lost. They don't remember Gore withdrawing his concession or vowing to fight on and then backing off and then retreating from the world and returning as a crazed ecological crusader who then morphed into a sleek pitchman for Big Green. Or as sleek as a Gore gets.
But Gore is still bitter he was never President Gore.
