Camejo-Cobb debate at Green Convention
Pray that the Greens select Cobb. Their endorsement of Nader/Camejo will only give Nader more standing.

1. Camejo's a good guy
who comes with wonderful progressive credentials. How he got suckered into joining a ticket with Nader is beyond me.

I'm afraid if the Greens go with Nader, they're going to lose a lot of the good feeling among progressives that they currently enjoy, and that would be a shame.

I'll continue to vote Green locally, hold my nose and vote Democratic nationally. I want the GOP GONE, and the Democrats are the only ones who can do it. Voting Greens locally gets progressives into the political pipeline. They may change their party affiliation when they run nationally, but they'll remain progressive (we hope).

It's certainly worth a try.

2. To make matters stranger
what's left of the Reform Party has also endorsed Nader. I can really see Pat Buchanan and Ross Perot pushing for environmental activism and gay rights.
