Recently Nader didnt meet the requried amount of sigs to get on the Oregon ballot (he can still get on the ballot but has to do it by collecting individual sigs instead of the 'one event' sig party he tried).

The next two tests for him are NC, and TX. I am on his mailing list and was sent the following

...if he fails in TX and NC like he did in OR it will be a big blow. without a party org behind him he and his band of loonies have to do this all on their own. Of course both TX and NC are big Bush states, so one might expect a lot help from republicans.

NC can hardly be described as a "big Bush state". Leans Bush... possibly.

i think they want to get people to travel to TX and NC to stand in front of supermarkets and get sigs from the locals.

...if they put a Bush/Cheney poster up...they will have those sigs in no time.  Wink

In states like Michigan, Florida, Wisconsin, Iowa, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, etc, I suspect Karl Rove has already collected all the signatures Nader needs to get on the Ballot.. Cheesy

Thats just crazy.... recent polling suggest that dead people break 87/13% for the Democrats.., the GOP does poorly among the dead...

However enhanced GOTV efforts are working to improve that number...

By 2008 Karl Rove has commited to achieving graveyard parity with the Democrats Cheesy

Now we know what Democrats think of those for whom consumer advocacy, public safety, and environmental awareness are important issues.

I have no problem with his early days of consumer advocacy, public safety and environmental awareness.

However, what he worked so hard to fight for would , in my opinion, no offense to Bush, be underminded.

Yes. I am one of those uneasy about Nader running. I would like to see Bush and Kerry just duke it out.

He probably does get most of his signatures from republicans.
