Threatened by Nader's popularity, Vice President Gore emphasizes environment in stump speeches.
"As if the Earth's poor ozone layer weren't threatened enough from greenhouse gases, Vice President Al Gore released his own special brand of hot air into the atmosphere Thursday. Bashed by the left as being too willing to compromise on the environment and by the right for being a tree-hugger, Gore is launching a 'practical,' New Democrat, Greenish assault, defending his environmental record from the threat posed by Green Party candidate Ralph Nader and spewing forth further emissions on Gov. George W. Bush's horrendous Texas environmental record."
