(E2 Wire) — Former Vice President Al Gore is “sorry” that Newt Gingrich has repudiated the 2008 climate change ad he cut with then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
Gingrich appeared in the ad for Gore’s nonprofit group and called for action on climate change. He has since called the spot “the single dumbest thing I’ve done in recent years.”
Gore said he was sorry for Gingrich’s change of heart. More broadly, he expressed concern that “special interests” are dictating candidates’ stances on the topic.
