8. I was actually thinking that having Nader on the ballot may harm Bush
as much as Kerry. There are plenty of people out there that hate Bush but won't vote for Kerry (disenchanted Republicans). With Nader on the ballot, they will be able to make a protest vote for somebody they have heard of. If they show up to vote and no Nader on the ballot, they may be more likely to hold their noses and vote for Bush.

I agree that it's better to not have Nader on the ballot though.
