Reply #103: I think too many analysts overemphasize Ralph Nader's role in 2000 [View All]

The debacle over butterfly ballots in Florida made Nader the flavor of the month, but that's it. More disturbing than the butterfly ballot fiasco was the wholesale disenfranchisement of eligible black voters in Florida, denied access to the polls because they might share a first initial and last name with some convicted felon.

The failure of the Clinton healthcare plan was big, but I'm not seeing where it translated into electoral votes for Republicans.
