217. Once again... WRONG.

He voted for Clinton/Gore (he is a very good friend of Bill's, btw) both times, and Gore/Lieberman. He has already said this a number of times.

As a matter of fact, they are so close, he is speaking at The Clinton Library today:

"Path of a President" dinner event
Start:
April 4, 2005 - 7:00pm

Location:
Clinton Presidential Library, Little Rock, AR
It's one thing to just tour "political places." It's another to visit these sites and meet the people who helped make the destinations famous. That's what the new offering by Little Rock Tours, "The Path of a President," will include on its inaugural run, April 4 and 5.

"The Path of a President," which combines tourism and politics, will focus on Little Rock and Hot Springs National Park and include the major tourist attractions, the history, and Clinton sites in both communities. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to meet and listen to people who have made political headlines around the world.

On Monday, April 4th, as part of "The Path of a President," General Clark will speak at a dinner event at the Clinton Presidential Library and the Holiday Inn Presidential Center, along with Senator Dale Bumpers and Gene Lyons.

A limited number of seats are available for this event. Tickets are $75. The deadline to purchase your tickets is March 31.
Please call Cary Martin at Little Rock Tours at 501-868-7287 or 800-933-3836 for more information.

And he was at the Clinton Library Opening Ceremonies:

Counterinaugural at the Clinton Library
By Sidney Blumenthal
Salon.com

Excerpt:

The opening ceremony was biblical in its spectacle, length and rain. For more than four hours we huddled in thin ponchos under the unrelieved downpour, through many church choirs and a Colombian children's band, a jazz trumpeter and Bono, awaiting four presidents. Only on election nights, after Clinton's two victories, was Little Rock previously inundated with such a cast of thousands - former advisors and Cabinet secretaries, the diplomatic corps and high school friends of Bill, Wes Clark and Barbra Streisand, Madeleine Albright and Robin Williams - spilling out of the Capital and Peabody hotels and down the main drag, and milling in the bars and streets until the wee hours. For the assembled Democrats, beneath the nostalgic celebration it was an unofficial convention, a kind of counterinaugural, with rueful discussions of the recent defeat.
