that was interesting: Clinton was among those frustrated by (Gore's 2000 campaign), in part because Gore largely sidelined him. The vice president's mortification with Clinton's misbehavior in the Monica Lewinsky scandal was still fresh, and Clinton was judged a political liability.

Clinton felt Gore could have used to him to promote the economic record they built over two terms. Strains deepened in the relationship between the pair of baby boomers who had campaigned in a 1992 bus tour that inspired a knockoff on the name of the time-travel movie, "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure."

As Gore tells it, they closed at least some of their distance right after the 2001 terror attacks on the United States, when he was driving from Toronto to Washington and Clinton invited him to come to his house in Chappaqua, N.Y. The two stayed up all night talking.
