June 19, 2006 Gore Won't Back Lieberman...Won't Oppose Him, Either, But... Hat tip: The Note: HUNT: "Sir, We only have about 30 seconds left, let me switch subjects for one final question. You opposed the Iraq war in 2002, your running mate in 2000, Joe Lieberman, had a different view, he supported the war. He's running against an anti-war candidate now. Who are you for?" GORE: "I am not involved. I typically do not get involved in Democratic primaries. Joe is my close friend, Joe & Hadassah are close to Tipper and me and it would be very difficult for me to ever oppose him. But I don't get involved in primaries typically. He's a great guy and he's right on a lot of other issues."
I'm not surprised the former vice president is sticking it to his running mate. Gore's been spending lots of time with the same folks seeking Lieberman's ouster. He has even pushed the "Bush lied" on Iraq wmd nonsense even though he told an audience in San Francisco in September 2002 that Saddam had "stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country." Sounds like the perfect 2008 candidate for the Democrats to rally around.
