Thread Name: Nader for President
Subject: RE: Nader for President
Jeeze, Whistle Stop, why don't you start a write-in campaign? You said what you said very well. I just don't believe Gore can get the job done with what will likely be a Republican dominated Senate, and maybe even the House. I'm just not impressed with Gore. He talks "down" to folks, I think, and is just a bit to "preachy" for my taste. He also believes, as most liberal democrats do, that government is the answer to all that ails the country ( I say as I duck).

I do agree with you on the Supreme Court. Many Judges who were appointed because of their left or right leanings moved toward the center or even in the opposite direction once on the bench. I don't believe when Ike appointed Earl Warren to the Supreme Court he got what he thought he was going to get. The only argument I have with the Supreme Court is when they try to make law, rather than interpret it.

No, Mousethief, the Republicans are running those ads hoping to sway the undecideds to vote for Nader to bleed votes away from Gore. I won't speak for you, of course, but I do think you are aware of that.

Hi back, Rick. I don't share Donohue's philosophy, as you know, but I was impressed with how well he articulated his case for Nader and the Green Party. Better than anyone I have heard. Creep Alert** -Rick, Bill Craig is in town performing this week and is coming to my house for a little party I'm throwing Friday night before his gig. Sorry for the creep, folks. DougR
