Gore: 'I think I carried Florida'
By Joe Concha - 08/05/17 11:08 AM EDT

Former vice president and Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore told HBO's Bill Maher he thinks he carried the state of Florida in 2000, a state that would have given Gore the presidency over George W. Bush.

Gore, 69, visited Maher on HBO's "Real Time" on Friday to discuss his follow-up climate change documentary "An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power" when the host broached the issue of rising sea levels.

“So when the sea levels rise, obviously we could lose Venice. We could lose Florida. And who would know better about losing Florida?” Maher joked, leading to some groans from the live studio audience in Los Angeles.

“Actually, I think I carried Florida,” a smiling Gore retorted. “But that’s another --- we won’t go there.”

So, basically the Dems can't ever let any thing go.

Even with the recount that was finally stopped, Bush would have still carried Fla
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Had Al Gore won his home state, he could have won.

Re: Gore: 'I think I carried Florida'


Al Gore also thinks that he is the son of God, so there's that.


He thinks he has a mission to single handedly "Save the Planet Earth". And to become a multi-billionaire while doing it.


I am Captain America, dammit! Anyone who disagrees with anything I say is a stupid blasphemer! The science is settled. The case is closed. Now gimme all your money!
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

He thinks if we peons stop driving SUVs (but he keeps heating and cooling his palatial homes while zipping around the world in private jets), the weather will change for the better. Or something.
