To me shrub is only
slightly more onerous than Gore. A conservative democrat can in many ways
do more harm than a republican, because liberals won't take on one of their
own. Evidence Don't Ask Don't Tell, Welfare "reform" (which we
will be reaping the consequences of during the next President's reign as
families start getting kick off the rolls when their five years are up),
etc. There will ALWAYS be a Republican that we think is the next great
AntiChrist. Is there a Republican out there that's going to get the
nomination that you wouldn't be opposed to? Probably not. So by that
logic, there will NEVER be the time to build a 3rd party.
If you don't want to "throw
away" your vote--then why not devote some time to getting current
non-voters to turn out for Nader--people who wouldn't get off their
barcoloungers to vote for Gore in the first place and who stopped voting when
the Democrats decided they could win by becoming Republicans. Then you
have the best of both worlds.
