1. Oh, good, now Kerry will win SC for sure
Then again, maybe not.

"In South Carolina, the latest Rasmussen Reports survey shows President Bush with 53% of the vote and Senator Kerry with 36%. In Election 2000, Bush won South Carolina by sixteen percentage points, beating Al Gore 57% to 41%."

2. SC Better Watch Out
Nader will be suing them next, just like he's trying to sue Arizona.

If nothing else this does show that Nader is no different then the two
major political parties.

4. I'm glad Nader didn't get on, but Kerry won't win there.
Hey, I live there! Remember, the only Fed officials were ancient, from the days the south was Dems.

If Kerry wins SC, then I predict he will also win Alabama.

It's just not realistic.

6. It's all about the electoral college
If Ralph doesn't get on enough state ballots to equal 270 EV's, it becomes impossible for him to win. Goodbye debate invitation.

5. Ralph Nader sold out
When did Ralph Nader sell out. Growing up I saw Ralph Nader as a champion of the consumers protecting them from death and other harm full things at the hands of the corporate greed machine.
