Exit polling of Nader voters showed that if Ralph hadn't run, half of his voters would have gone to Gore, a quarter to Bush and the other quarter to even smaller parties or they would have stayed home. If you look at how many votes Nader got in Florida and elsewhere, it's clear that if the above percentages had gone to Gore and Bush we'd have a different team in the White House today. In effect, by splitting Gore's support, Nader put Bush in the White House. That's why the Green Party refused to support him this time around. Remember Ross Perot? He did the same thing for Bill Clinton - twice! By splitting the support for Papa Bush in 92 and Dole in 96, he allowed Clinton to be elected with less than a popular majority. But as long as our political leadership is determined by who gets the biggest PAC bribes for their re-election, it really doesn't matter which party has control. Sounds like a rationale to avoid saying Bush's support of BPL is a bad thing. The idea that a Nader vote will somehow stop BPL is misguided. I don't know whether a vote for Kerry will help in the BPL fight, but you can be sure that a vote for Nader will simply help reelect Bush. And remember this plain, simple fact: A vote for Bush is a vote for BPL. 73 de Jim, N2EY ABB eh Jim? Pathetic. ABB? What's that mean, Dan? Vote Nader 73 de Jim, N2EY |
Vote for GWB!!1

[vote for Bush] Dan/W4NTI Good for you, Dan - and I'll vote for "none of the above," also known as Ralph Nader - as long as Mike Powell [previously with the Washington, D.C. law firm of O'Melveny & Myers LLP, where he focused on helping clients in matters involving telecommunications] is the FCC's chief cheerleader for BPL. Not only is my vote in protest of BPL being rammed down our throats by the power company PAC bribes, but because I'm tired of Democrats complaining that Nader only subtracts from their traditional supporters. ak |
George Busch rules!!!

BPL is a MAJOR issue for me, and believe me if other things were not so important I too would vote for anyone but some nitwit that supported it. I honestly think Mr. Bush was just advised wrong on this, and apparantly other, issues. There are much more important issues here to deal with this election. I am sick to death of how the Democrats are acting. They seem to think getting rid of Bush is more important that saving the country. Sorry, I can't go that route. I am voting for BUSH. Dan/W4NTI |
