Most of Ralph Nader's campaign contributions from Republicans?

At least that's what political analyst Carl Jeffers said today on the Fred Ebert show 710 KIRO AM Seattle. I might question this from someone else but Jeffers seems pretty unbiased in his reporting.

10. So apparently then, the answer is no, Nader isn't getting the majority
Of his contributions from 'Pugs, at least according to your article. In fact it says that he is only getting ten percent of his donations from 'Pugs that are double dipping. Gee, I would imagine that number is comparable to the amount of money that the Democrats are getting from 'Pugs who are double dipping. I would also imagine that number is also comparable to amount that Dems are donating to Nader's campaign.

So gee folks, it is all a wash in the end.

6. C'mon those rethugs really love Fidelity Ralph's agenda.
I hear republicans talking all the time about how much they want more corporate regulation. don't you?

What, you think it's because they think he'll take votes from Kerry and they're already maxed out on their donations to chimp? Please. You are soooooooooooooooo cynical.
