Heh, sellouts. I'm starting to hope Bush wins, just so I can see Eddie Vedder collapse, sobbing, in Noam Chomsky's arms.

I've had a gut feeling all along that before the election Nader will actually at some point say he is no longer a candidate. We'll see.

I note that in Florida Bush's brother's administration is intervening to try to ensure that Nader's name is on the ballot...

I can't believe how duplicitous these people are, truly. They are only for electoral reform when it is convenient, apparently. This hysteria mongering is so going to boomerang on the left.

That list of people now supporting a pro-war candidate, were the leaders of the anti-war protests a year and a half ago.

But thanks for supplying us with the link, saulgoldie. Now I know which organizations I'll never support again.

I fear it won't matter if Nader withdraws or not. Once your name is on the ballott, people can vote for you. And Nader's supporters are dedicated enough to do so. They KNOW he isn't going to win anyway, so they're voting to send a message, and they'll send it whether Nader is with them or not.

Which is their constitutional rights as US citizens.

You forgot to add that part.

Agreed, GUEST. It is most certainly within their rights to vote for whomever they wish, and even to write in a candidate who is not on the ballot.

of course when Ashcroft ran for office before he was appointed attorney general the other guy on the ballot died, but more people voted for him than ashcroft.

That is an amusing and striking mental image, Lepus...

Lepus lives in an Andersonville of his own mind. But he has the will to do so.

Shh, harp... er, GUEST. No-one knows that my real life name is Will(y) Anderson, and I live in North Branch, Minnesota, USA. Or that I'm easy to find, as I'm "in the book," and there's only like one or two other Will Andersons in this small town of 8000 or so! Top-secret shit.

And how about that virtuous paragon of objectivity John McCain endorsing Nader's candidacy in Florida?
