Tipper Gore, the former vice president's wife, was consulted for her views on early-childhood education and mental health issues, according to campaign officials.

 WorldNetDaily: Karenna Gore, Glamour's sore loser
It's callous and foolish when Karenna, the mother of one, who is pregnant with her 2nd child, rages against the Unborn Victims of Violence Act.
Karenna's deservedly stuck on pages 196 and 233 — the "back of the book."

Karenna was a "2000 Glamour Woman of the Year," along with gun-control Million Mom March creator Donna Dees-Thomases, condom-hawking has-been actress Sharon Stone and other similarly confused women.

GORE SCHIFF: Well, no. I think that -- that Joe Lieberman is very much motivated by his faith in terms of doing work that will really help people and promote goodness in the world, and that's part of who he is. And I think that he has his own freedom of religion to express that.
