Clinton Praises Gore at Tenn. Rally

Rapprochement?

Former President Bill Clinton wasn’t just supporting current Democratic candidates at a Tennessee political rally Thursday night.

Speaking to supporters of Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Harold Ford Jr., Clinton also praised Al Gore, his former vice president. Gore did not attend.

“I ran a partnership, not a one-man show,” Clinton said about his presidency. “And if it hadn’t been for Al Gore, a lot of those things wouldn’t have happened.”

Clinton said he has been “tickled” to see the global response to Gore’s film “An Inconvenient Truth.”

“I called him the other day and told him: ‘You know Hillary and I went to see your movie at our local theater. The first time, we couldn’t get in, it was full,”‘ he said. “We had to just walk away and walk on home.”
