Amen. Nader is seeking attention and taking advantage of the fustration
of our Republican run government which uses cynism to trick
working class, middle class people to Vote  Republican..
I must say its a brilliant. Look at talk radio. I heard one of them
Hanratty? say that liberalism as a disease and conservitism as the
the cure......

Subject: [UC] "Ralph Nader Raids Again"

This is an excellent Letter to the Editor and also an editorial in today's Inquirer on why Nader's candidacy is, in my opinion, disingenuous and potentially so destructive. Some excerpts:

From the letter:

"...He claims in his self-aggrandizing rhetoric, that he stands for all third parties against the current "duopoly" in Washington. But he ignores the reality that because winner takes all in the Electoral College system, there is no room for a third party. A third party candidate only acts as a spoiler for the party it is closest to."

And from the editorial:

"...But without Nader in the picture in 2000, Bush's narrow Electoral College victory would have been impossible to scam..."

and...

"...The vital issue in this election is that a Republican sweep may make permanent the damage to the constitutional principle of checks and balances. How dare Nader ignore the reactionary cast of Bush's judicial appointments and the refusal of a Republican-controlled Congress to challenge the mendacity of this president on issues as varied and important as global warming and the pre-emptive, deceit-driven invasion of Iraq?..."
