It's clear that Nader gets loopier and loopier with age. He would seriously erode votes for Dean. Didn't sound loopy yesterday. But in any case I prefer the yapping dogs to the ones that don't bark, and let thieves into the parlor. I doubt he'd erode many Dean votes. So far, Dean supporters don't take b.s. too seriously. And anything Nader says that turns out to be valid is more ammunition for Dean's quest against the established machine politics in both parties.

I take it you went to a party or something this last weekend and found out what average people think about GW Bush, no? You thought Bush was popular because the pundits on TV say so... but then when the topic of politics come up the level of anger and contempt towards Bush is surprising isn't it? I really think thats it Victor. You show up here on some sort of desperate mission... why not just rest on the Bush laurels after all he's a shoo-in against Dean, right? I've seen this misfire on the part of the polls twice in the last few years. First was in 98 when everyone I talked to was furious over the republican impeachment hearings, the polls said a republican landslide and instead Newt Gingrich got tossed. Next in my state it was supposed to be close between Arnold and Davis. Polls can't accurately predict voter anger. Bush's lack of concern for mom and pop and the American workforce is going to kill him imho. Rich companies, poor people = Dean wins imho.
