And, interestingly, Nader's numbers are almost equal between Repubs (3 percent) and Dems (4 percent).

1. Don't Forget 2000's Unpleasantness

Remember the thousands of blacks and Hispanics that were not allowed to vote in FL? I'm sure many of these likely voters will have their votes thrown out, but only on the condition that they are Dems. Those that vote for Nader are not worth wasting time and money over, because Nader is not neck-and-neck with Bush.

2. It'll be interesting to see if Jeb tries that again

I think the Kerry campaign are ready if they do. The Dems are determined not to let history repeat itself.

3. And that's without Graham on the ticket

Bob Graham must be a top candidate for the spot since he has credibility to criticize bush on 9/11 and Iraq. He's popular in Florida. (think he used to be governor there).

Without Florida, shrub's chances of winning are greatly reduced.

4. he also Loves the Patriot Act

5. That is way too close

Kerry must have 5 points on Bush to prevent a replay of 2000. Remember Jebby saying upon hearing that his brother lost Florida, "That can't be". He knew the fix was in. The only way to beat the fix is a large margain of victory.

My hope is Nade doesn't make the ballot.
