62. Since you can't prove "intent"...how do you plan to backup the premise of your OP ?
Specifically, how do you know that "The people who voted for Nader wouldn't have voted at all had Nader not run." Is that your opinion or did someone poll a significant sample of Nader voters to establish this ?

Again, do we know from some sort of poll, survey, etc that "people who didn't like either candidate to say that they made a "protest vote"".....

It sure sounds plausible... but like so many things that "sound plausible"... they need to be backed with some shred of data.
