1. That's what I'm
afraid of. So often when a third party enters the 'other' party ends up winning cause the other two split the vote. :-(

2. Maybe that was the content of KKKarl Rove's call to Lieberman...
...hey Joe, run as an independent, split the democratic vote by enough to let our republican candidate win and you become a made man!

4. I think the Dems have learned from the Nadar issue..
and I think Dems realize it is more critical now than ever to put opposition in Congress.....

And with Rove calling Lieberwhore offering support.....(The voters may have voted for Lieberwhore) but they despise Rove.......the fact that he called to offer Lieberwhore assistance is poisen....

6. Please hold back some of the blame for the idiots voting...
... for LiberNaderBush.

In a certain sense, you can't fault a guy for running, but you can DEFINITELY fault a jackass for voting for them.

8. Very true, and well said. Some are like the 23% Bush lemmings.
Maybe it wont happen this time. I'll be glad when November is over.

7. That's always a worry
But it sounds like the repub candidate has so little support that he can't win even if the rest of the vote is split.

9. Where is he going to get his funding from?
Another DUer in another forum has suggested that if he gets his funding from the Republicans it could backfire on him badly.
