1. It would be a miracle if he got half of that this time. (n/t)

2. me too
I don't think he is an even remote threat to the outcome whatsoever.

But really I do think he is interjecting himself into the race to see if he can introduce issues that are normally not discussed into the dialogue as he said on MTP and as he also said in '04. I think that at least aspect of his candidacy is sincere.

If memory serves, in '04 he had a snit about not being allowed to participate in the debates after the conventions. I think he was denied entrance to where they were being held. We might see a replay of that scenario.

3. People have, I hope, learned that a vote for Nader
is a vote for the repugs.

5. I hope, and suspect, you're right. I hope he gets even less this time.

6. Thank you
Nader is irrelevant. The voters won't be fooled again.

I said in another thread that if Bloomberg were to run, he'd be a bigger threat. Nader is a punch line.
