Nader shafting DK is obvious

1. No it isn't

Dennis knows what is going on.

Ralph will get far more press as a "spoiler" than Dennis is getting now. So the message still gets out.

LOL

You make it sound like Dennis is happy Nader is running. Which is completely false.

3. Ahem.

Which candidate has said nary a peep about Nader's announcement?

'Nuff said.*smirk*

4. I think he knows the what's going on

There is no way Ralph can have an effect on Dennis in the primary, so it's no conflict unless Dennis does not get the nom. (which, of course, I hope he does.)

5. I dont think it's false at all

:shrug:

[no name no slogan]

6. I seriously doubt he cares that much

He even addressed it at the post-Nader announcement rallies. He's said that although he and Nader do agree on things and have worked together for over 30 years, HE's the one who can win the support of Democrats as well as disaffected and 3rd party voters.

If more of the candidates and their supporters stopped worrying about how Nader would "hurt" them and worried more about staying true to the ideals of this party, we'd have NO PROBLEM beating both Nader and Bush this fall.

2. Yeah right
