Gore Stays on Sidelines

Al Gore was interviewed by Leslie Stahl on 60 Minutes over the weekend and reiterated that he was not going to get involved in the Democratic presidential race.

Leslie Stahl: "Are they calling you every minute?"

Al Gore: "Not every minute."

Stahl: "No? Lotta pressure though, I'll bet."

Gore: "We unplugged the phones for this interview, so I can't say with authority. But no, everyone -- they both call. And I appreciate that fact."

Stahl: "And what about the idea of the honest broker who goes to the two candidates and helps push one or the other of them off to the side?"

Gore: "Yeah, kind of a modern Boss Tweed."

Stahl: "Except his name would be Al Gore."

Gore: "Well, I'm not applying for the job of broker."
