20. Take it seriously
Faux, isn't a good source for a poll, but don't underestimate the effect Nader could have on the race, regardless of whether he is an independent or has the backing of a party. It is going to be a close election, everything counts. I suggest you poll DUers as to whether they would vote for him (or another 3rd party candidate) if Kerry gets the nomination, than decide as to whether it is a real threat. The weakness of the left is that it is fractured and does not have a specific rallying point. Where as the right has a point around which to rally and does not fracture during the general election. Look at McCain, if any Republican should appose Bush, it should be him. But he is supporting Bush. Give the DU a poll and you'll see how much of a threat Nader is.
