Should Nader run, we have TWO choices:


1. Bitch, moan, complain, blame him for 2000, "a vote for Nader is a vote for Bush", etc. etc. etc.

2. FIGHT. Fight, goddammit.


Choose now.

3. My point exactly
People whine about how gutless the Dems in Congress are - maybe they should take a good, long look in the mirror.

We can either sit back and take it like Bush did with Perot, or form a new strategy and fight it. The third party IS a political reality in American politics.

4. Like Terwilliger just said....
...I don't see many here planning on going that road, especially with the usual chorus of Nader Haters dropping flame threads a handful of times every day.

7. Dem leadership might have to get up off their asses
and work for progresive votes, instead of trying to get repooks to vote dem.

8. I doubt many care
They seem content to bask in the shadow of their betters. As long as they get their take for their time on their knees.
