Yes. Some libs were trying to tell me that he was running a radical environmentalism campaign against Bush, and so he was seen as a threat to the status quo, but that's just false.
Nader was running on something similar to the GND, iirc, and Gore was calling it crazy, over-the-top, and unnecessary. He suggested a pretty modest carbon tax, and only made his switch on environmentalism well into GWB's first term. People seem to think that An Inconvenient Truth came out like right after the election, but it wasn't released until half way through Bush's second term.
Gore was a shit candidate, running on standard neolib policies, and he lost because of that. And some elections fraud in Florida.
But wasn't Gore a perfectly neoliberal ghoul replacement too?

Yeah but Bush was like "if you let me win then I'll do 9/11 and we can go to war"
