This isn’t the endorsement Mitt Romney needs right now.

Liberal Al Gore took to his blog Wednesday to applaud the former Massachusetts governor for his stance on climate change.

“Good for Mitt Romney,” Gore, the former Democratic vice president, wrote about the Republican seeking the White House in 2012.

He continued: “While other Republicans are running from the truth, he is sticking to his guns in the face of the anti-science wing of the Republican Party.”

Gore went on to reference a Washington Post story that said Romney during a town hall meeting last week “stuck to the position he has held for many years — that he believes the world is getting warmer and that humans are contributing to it.”
