Former vice president and Democratic presidential nominee Al Gore told HBO's Bill Maher he thinks he carried the state of Florida in 2000, a state that would have given Gore the presidency over George W. Bush.
Gore, 69, visited Maher on HBO's "Real Time" on Friday to discuss his follow-up climate change documentary "An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth to Power" when the host broached the issue of rising sea levels. ....
“So when the sea levels rise, obviously we could lose Venice. We could lose Florida. And who would know better about losing Florida?” Maher joked, leading to some groans from the live studio audience in Los Angeles.
“Actually, I think I carried Florida,” a smiling Gore retorted. “But that’s another --- we won’t go there.” Maher agreed that Gore won the hotly-contested state and its 25 electoral votes at the time. “That’s right, OK, there you go. I think you do did too."

Get lost, Loserman!
He may actually have convinced himself it’s true over the years. He’s not the brightest bulb in the crayon box.
Democrats can never accept a loss.
If Gore had carried his own damn state, he wouldn’t have needed Florida.
Maybe he means Flo Rida. I don’t think the rapper is that heavy.
He didn’t carry Florida even after the Florida SC gave him an extra 2 weeks to count votes in counties that HE cherry picked. Lying scum.
The Ministry of Propaganda recounted every ballot in FL repeatedly and could not make Gore the winner.
You lost Florida, ManBearPig!
Not according to ANY actual vote count, Al. Now, sit down and shut up.
He lost Florida every time they counted the votes, yet he still thinks he won.
Gore didn’t ‘win’ Florida - dems underestimated the number of votes needed to stuff the ballot boxes. Probably the same thing that happened to Hillary in PA... not enough ‘stuffing’..
Gore could learn a lesson from Disney. As Elsa would say, “Let it go. Let it go. Let it go.”
A dishonest election is one liberals lose.
Wait until 2037 when he is Mondale or Carter’s age and he is still saying he won and oceans are going rise. MSM still won’t call him crazy.
He lost because of global warming or climate change. It depends on how he’s feeling at the time.
The only place Algore and SoreLoserman won was in the media.
I believe that there were a total of five recounts and he never won, regardless of hanging chads or not. At one one was by the media (AP) itself.
Sedition.
