Pearce fears that Nader may be playing into the hands of the right wing. "I think WEEKLY STANDARD readers might gleefully anticipate Nader running and splitting off some critical amount of Democratic voters and causing the reelection of George Bush," he says. Also, he would not be surprised if conservatives were secretly bankrolling Nader. "If I was Richard Mellon Scaife, I know where I'd be putting my money right now," he says. "And it would surely be with mischief and malevolence in mind." Of course, "this is pure speculation--I have no information on whether reactionaries are contributing to Nader's campaign--it's just that given the deafening silence from the grassroots for a Nader run, you have to wonder what's propping up his campaign, and it leads to wilder and more paranoid speculations."

Yup
