Poll question: With Nader in the race, which Dem. candidate can decisively defeat Bush?
Which Democratic candidate (if any) can bring disenfranchised (and fed up) liberal voters back on board with the Democrats?

Which candidate will be able to bring new voters to the polls to offset the individuals who have already given up on the Democrats and plan to vote third party (I admit, I did feel that way at one point but now I'm back to ABB).

1. If the Dems are so afraid of the Nader factor....
Why not "draft" Nader instead?

Why not ask David Cobb to run as a Dem instead of demonizing all things Green?

4. hmmm...I don't think it would be that farfetched to draft a Green
in future elections. However, Nader comes across as... a bit off. I like his message but in this society, image is everything!

3. Can Bill Clinton run again?
He's been out for four, would he dare come back for more?

6. No. The 22nd Amendment is pretty clear on that
"No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice..." However, I don't see any reason why he couldn't run for vice president.

5. I think we all know that H. Clinton on the ticket would
mean a decisive victory for the Dems. Despite the "word" on most online political forums, Hilary Clinton is hugely popular and people like her! But is it worth it to hear the slime and dirt the Cons will be slinging for the next 8 years? Hmmm....
