re: #266 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

Gore made the mistake of thinking he could put his political career behind him and become an elder statesman and spokesman for a greater cause, but instead had the unintended effect of turning climate change into an even more partisan issue than it had been before.

It is unfortunate that he led a lot of people to reject climate change outright just because it came out of the words of a Democrat.

Remember this ad?

Nancy Pelosi and Newt Gingrich Commercial on Climate Change

Blast from the past!

I think they would’ve hardened against climate change with or without Gore. And I think he brought more folks into the fold and raised awareness tremendously.
