OP
It was Nader. Fortunately, their attempts to get Trump elected this time aren't working as well.

Not true. First, Gore won. Second, Gore rejected a whole lot if left-leaning folk by picking Joe.

Clarence Thomas gave the GOP to Florida.

But just keep repeating that bullshit if it makes you feel superior. It may be all you have.

Nader is a scapegoat used by right-wing Dems trying to excuse Gore's piss-poor VP selection and campaign.
DanTex
(20,709 posts)13. No Nader, it doesn't go to the court, and Gore is inaugurated.
And now the neo-Naderites are trying for a second act, hoping to help Trump defeat Hillary.
Scuba
(53,475 posts)14. Wrong. No Joe and Gore wins in a landslide.
DanTex
(20,709 posts)15. That's a totally unsubstantiated claim. And it also doesn't matter.
What Nader did was intentional. Picking Joe may or may not have been a mistake, but Nader purposely siphoned off votes.
