Al Gore to anchor Current TV convention coverage By Judy Kurtz - 08/08/12 05:55 PM ET

Former Vice President Al Gore will be leading political convention coverage for Current TV, the network announced Wednesday.

Gore heads up the progressive cable station, along with businessman Joel Hyatt.

The 2000 Democratic presidential nominee will be joined on-air by a mix of Current TV personalities, including: former New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer (D), “The Young Turks” host Cenk Uygur and former Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm (D).

“I’m pleased to be participating in Current TV’s impressive line-up throughout the Republican and Democratic National Conventions,” Gore said in a press release.

Gore has made light of his famously dry delivery in the past, once joking, "Al Gore is so boring, his Secret Service code name is Al Gore."

Aw, I don't have his channel.

It might have been entertaining watching Gore spin and try to look like he knows what he is talking about.

I wonder if I can persuade my Congressional representative to sponsor legislation REQUIRING ex-office holders to quietly retire somewhere and leave us alone.

That means you, Al. Take Jimmy and Bill with you- go fish or play poker or something.

This could be very misleading for the people in traction or otherwise unable to reach the remote.

Thanks Sub-Driver.

“Anchor” doubly appropriate in this case.

I hope his true colors come out drastically and this backfires dramatically.
