FULL TITLE: "Al Gore blamed Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky for costing him the presidency – but power-mad Hillary had already torn apart the president and the VP"

Al Gore never forgave Bill Clinton for 'betraying' him over the Monica Lewinsky scandal and costing him the 2000 election, a new book reveals.

A new book claims that Gore felt Clinton's 'impeachment cast a permanent shadow on their joint accomplishments' and ruined his chance of succeeding him as president.

Gore's camp thought that Clinton 'did not want Gore to succeed' against George W Bush after he was impeached following his affair with Lewinsky.

First In Line: Presidents, Vice Presidents and the Pursuit of Power gives fresh insight into the dark tensions at the heart of the relationship between Gore and Clinton.

The two men were like 'brothers' but their friendship turned to animosity in part due to Hillary Clinton clashing with Gore as she built her own power base in the White House.

As Gore sees it there has been 'no closure' on the feud and he only endorsed Hillary in a Tweet four months before the 2016 election amid panic from Democrats.

Clinton's legacy as president is being re-examined in the #MeToo era, and earlier this week he was challenged about the Lewinsky affair on NBC's Today show.

First in Line, by New York Times bestselling author Kate Andersen Brower, takes a different track and looks again at his relationship with Gore.

Hey Al. You’re one slight notch above Hillary on the likability scale. A tiny notch.

This just goes to show Al Gore is as dumb as dirt. Did he ever stop to consider that a guy who would cheat on his wife wouldn’t sell him down the river too?

Al baby. You made the decision to not criticize the asshole. He sold missile guidance tech to china and you picked up the cash envelopes at the Buddhist Temple in Hacienda Heights CA. but you said nothing. So you got your ass kicked.

You have show your lack of ethics on the warming, now change agenda and your hypocrisy with your mansion and private plane fights.

So just be quiet and STFU.
