WHY are you so sure Nader's votes would otherwuse have gone to Gore?
In Florida 97,000 people voted for Nader. Bush beat Gore by 500. The
point is that all 97,000 wouldn't have had to vote for Gore. Some might
not have voted at all if Nader was out of the race. Some might even
have voted for Bush. But it seems likely that a plurality of more than
500 would have voted for Gore, putting him over the top.
Let me ask this: of the Nader supporters on the list, if Nader hadn't
been in the race, how many of you would have voted for Bush?
