So I've volunteered with the Democrats to knock on doors in my precinct and register voters. No, still no Republicans lunging at me with sharp instruments, but I did come across something even weirder: a couple well over sixty a few doors down from me who claim to be Nader supporters. I hope I didn't look at them as if they were crazy because I was thinking it really loudly. Oh yeah: I registered a couple of people to vote, and I've got about 90% of my list still to go.

Is Nader even running this time?

Crazy old people.

Yes, he is, but I hear he didn't get enough signatures to make it onto the ballot in California. Nyeh heh heh heh.

I've seen a couple of news stories wherein Republicans readily admit giving him $.

They tried to get him on the ballot, the Dems tried to keep him off. Foul play on both sides, I'm afraid.

I should probably do the same thing you're doing except I'd convince people to vote republican. Florida is a big swing state so maybe it's appropriate that i'm back here to help out :)

The democrats have sent lawyers to at least 20 states trying to make sure that Nader doesn't get on the ballots. Such poor sportmanship, that's just rude. If he can get the number of signatures to run, then let him. Otherwise they're depriving him of his constitutional right to run for president.
