    If it could help undo the eight-year abomination created by Ralph Nader's third-party candidacy in 2000, hell yeah, I'm all for it, too.

    Every democrat in the country wants Mitt or Bloomberg to run as a third party candidate because it will guarantee a democratic win a la 1992...

    Bush doesn't win without Nader, but Bill Clinton doesn't win without Perot...

    Like a bad penny or cough, Nader and his monstrous ego continue to lurk.

    Good riddance. When a guy says things like he wouldn't want to put a Muslim in his cabinet because he believes it wouldn't help fight radical jihad, it kinda' contradicts the whole...you know...Constitution thing.

    It's also a very dangerous thing to say(the Muslim that's in the overseas who you're trying to convince Democracy is the right way listens to this shit too) because by saying statements like that, you're taking Al Qaeda's bait.

    I give Mitt a lot of credit for falling on his sword for the good of the party. The republicans will soon be ble to present a united front while the dems are still sluggin it out.

    Jesus, the zombie meme that will not die.
    Clinton wins an electoral landslide with or without Perot. Give GWB all of Perot's voters, and he wins one, maybe two more states, and none of the major ones. He also wins the popular vote as everu post-election survey showed Perot drawing equally from both sides, which was not the case with Nader, btw.

    It would be alot more troubling if he had actually said it.

    I think it's got something to do with that, and something to do with wanting to remain politically viable. The longer he stayed in and threw mud, the more chance he'd be the guy who derailed McCain's chances.

    I'm not sure which percentage to allott to either side though. Probably more to keep himself viable for future positions.

    So this assures — barring a Huck miracle — that our next president will be a sitting senator.
