WASHINGTON — A confidant of Al Gore received an unsolicited package Wednesday containing documents and a videotape that appeared to involve rival George W. Bush's debate preparations, an aide to Gore said.
Tom Downey, a former congressman who has been helping the vice president prepare for debates against Bush, turned the material over to his lawyer. The lawyer planned to give the package to the FBI to determine whether the documents and tape were "illegally obtained from the Bush campaign," said Gore spokesman Mark Fabiani.
"We got something we shouldn't have and turned it over to the authorities," said Marc Miller, Downey's lawyer.
Fabiani said Gore's staff didn't know whether the package was a hoax or actual Bush campaign material.
Gore campaign chairman William Daley called Bush chairman Don Evans to notify him about the package.
Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer said: "We do not know what the Gore campaign claims to have in their possession, and we would like to review the material. Our attorneys have asked to review it."
However, Downey lawyer Miller said he rejected a request by Bush lawyer Ben Ginsberg to review the materials. "We decided we don't know what it was. The FBI is in a better position to determine what should be done about this," Miller said.
Fabiani said Downey has decided to stop participating in debate preparations.
Downey has not disclosed to campaign officials what is in the package, Fabiani added. A senior Bush adviser said the campaign does have videotapes of Gore's debates, Bush's debates and Bush's debate preparation sessions. There also are internal documents detailing potential strategies against Gore, said the official, who added that it is inconceivable the information was leaked to a Gore partisan.
