NADER is BUSH'S tool
The Republicans are at this very moment disingenuously supporting the candidacy of Ralph Nader. Why? you ask, the answer is DESPERATION. The Cons are hoping for a repeat of 2000 where Nader took enough votes from Gore to allow SHRUB CO* to steal Flori-duh for a dishonest win. What does Nader think about this, being used as a Republican tool? Obviously he's okay with this. A man of principal would be disgusted, but not Ralph. I guess it's more profitable for Ralph when Republicans are in control, because he gets more donations when things get worse. So E-mail Ralph (the Fool's Tool ) Nader and tell him his credibility is shot.

1. Why won't this backfire?
I have spoken with several Republicans that don't like Bush or Cheney, but will never in a thousand years vote for a Democrat. They have said they are contemplating either not voting or wasting their vote on Nader out of protest.

The Repukes could be surprised at how many of their own defect.

3. You're right! He might give an out to Pubs who will never be Dem!
I doubt Ralphie planned it this way, but by accepting help from the Pubs to get him on the ballot, he has pi**es off almost all the Dems, but might be giving some of the Pubs who are upset with Shrub as way out. They wouldn't be voting for a Dem (God forbid!), but casting a protest vote against both candidates!

5. CNN said yesterday that only in WI does Nader take more votes from *
CNN's Bill Schneider also reported that in 8 states Nader hurts Kerry while in 5 states, he makes no difference (of course, it all depends on what your definition of "no difference" is).

2. tell us something we don't know
MediaWhoresOnline had "Saint Ralph" figured out years and years ago.

But really, is it necessary to go on about this every single day? Nader's a willing tool of the GOP who won't stop what is doing to abet them. Oh well, on to the next topic.

4. I agree. The GOP must not have much faith in smirky if they are counting
on Nader to help them out!
