25. Neither spent millions of dollars to defeat Nader they spent millions of dollars to win
Are you so obtuse that you can not see that to win they needed to win as many votes as they could? That they couldn't "let" Nader take the far left without challenging him?

The fact is that Nader could not even articulate a sensible reason for running in 2004 - as he said Kerry was "Presidential" and he respected him. It is pretty hard to label the only Senator to fight BCCI as he did Gore. That and the fact that a lesson was learned in 2000 might be why he got so few votes.
