Algore was a fairly conventional southern Democrat once upon a time, fairly conservative. He was against abortion, for instance.

Yea, that was how I remember him too, back then. But, apparently, he started slipping into liberal-land, even back then. I agree with others, Perry does have some explaining to do here...being that he chaired Gore’s 1988 Texas campaign.

Yep. Al Gore was conservative until he had to change his politics to run with the then seen Conservative “The era of big government is ober” Bill Clinton. Also a so called conservative Democrat. Ole Bill never did push any State gun control on Arkansas but boy oh boy he played the politics of the left and become the most anti-2nd amendment President EVER. You guys are too young or just forget how politics really really sucks.

Not the 1988 Algore. He was a certified leftist by then and totally corrupted by the Clinton machine. Perry supporting him showed incredible lack of judgement.

Yeah, and AlGore was against tobacco and smoking too, that is only after his family made MILLIONS off of it..

OOPS! Hypocrisy is a bitch ain't it?

I don't trust Rick Perry as far as I can throw him. There's just something too ... "slick" about him.
