2. It's an invalid question . . .
Since he can't possibly run against all of them (him not being a Democrat running in the primary).

The only valid way to ask the question is who loses the vote that goes to Nader, Bush or the as yet unselected Democratic candidate.

Otherwise it's not a valid question.

3. Not a valid question
If Nader is not running in the Democratic primaries, he has to be pitted against Bush and whoever the Democratic candidate is, period.

5. Other because I simply don't think he will get anywhere near
enough votes to make a difference to the Democratic candidate. Even the most staunch third party voter should have caught on to the costs of that maneuver last time out. I don't see it happening again.

7. Kucinich
wouldn't lose any votes since Nader wouldn't run if he is the nominee.
