Nader says that he gets just as many votes from Republicans as from Democrats.

Nader is full of crap. Exit polls showed pretty close to zero republicans voting for him. Further, as a third-party candidate, he is no more satisfying than the candidates from the two big parties.

In any case, my statement was meant as a joke (though I probably didn't make it obvious enough, which is my fault). As I said before, looking at the poll data, Nader and all other third-party candidates combined did not play a significant role, even in swing states.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
