| 119. I think Gore considers Bill merely a friend. |
|
Bill's lies about Monica were a major factor in making it hard for Gore to win in 2000 and it is well known that their friendship experienced major cooling as a result. Also, Hillary and Al have nver been close.
Most importantly, Hillary has been so wrong on Iraq for so long, that it could be a major motivator for putting him in the race. Remember in 2003 when Lieberman thought his friendship with Gore would get him an endorsement. Instead Gore endorsed the only viable Democrat who was right about Iraq, i.e. Howard Dean.
If Gore does not run, the chances for world civilization will be diminished. Surely he understands this and would not make Bill's feelings a major factor in that equation.
I hope he will run. If not, my lifelong affection for the Democratic Party will be greatly diminished.
