1. Hush, hush!
We don't want 'em to figure it out!

LOL, it's just a hilarious example of how stupid people can be. There are Republicans who don't want to vote for Bush, so they vote for Nader instead, on the theory that, "I'm taking a vote away from Kerry by voting for Nader."

Doh.

2. I'm skeptical about that
After all, if we became complacent about Nader, and didn't insist that he dot all of his tees and cross his eyes :crazy: in order to get on the ballots across the country, we just might be royally screwed again.

3. i wasnt sure either but when i looked at the economist polls

internals, it showed that when nader was involved, that he was getting approx 2% of bush votes, and approx 1% of kerry. this was from the august internals and it was fascinating!

their poll sampling looks pretty good too - 2000 people and seems very professional.

4. My father is one of them.
He's got in his head somehow Clinton has murdered over 40 people and that Joe Kennedy was the one who caused the stock market to crash in the '20s (don't ask... I've tried to figure it out, but his tin-foil hat is just to shiny to see through), so he's got a weird vendetta against the Democrats. He'd normally be voting Bush, but he thinks that the DNC is conspiring to get Nader off of the ballots, so he's voting Nader just to spite the Democratic party... even though he'd normally be voting for Bush.

I love my father, but I think he's proof that there are several BATSHIT INSANE Republicans out there who will be voting for Nader.
