I probably will. But if the polling continues to be super close, I donā€™t know what Iā€™ll do. Iā€™d love to give Ralph my vote, hey, my seat belt is working out great, but I REALLY, REALLY donā€™t want Bush in. Aside from being a bumbling idiot who canā€™t speak coherant English, I canā€™t believe weā€™re considering electing ANOTHER man with a sexual euphemism as a last name. Whereā€™s our national pride, people? ā€œPresident Bush, Seniorā€ was bad enough. Please. ---

Iā€™m voting for Nader. I like the idea of a hippie veep. After watching the debates my choices were validated. If Nader were not running I would definately vote for Bush. Overall the Republican ideas coincide with my own thoughts on governance, but I have enouigh differences to withhold my support for them. Likewise with the Democrats; although the areas I disagree with on the Democratic side impact me and my family more directly than my disagreements with the Republicans. So call me a heartless, selfish bastardā€¦ ---

But DrFidelius, donā€™t you understand, if you vote for Nader instead of Bush itā€™s just like voting for Goreā€¦waitā€¦Iā€™m confused. Go Nader! ---

Granted it is pretty well known that I am going to be voting for Bush in this election, but I fail to see what is so appealing about Nader. I look at his (and the Green Party) platforms and I see Socialism. Am I missing something here? Not that I am going to change my mind or even looking to start any kind of a debate. More of a curiosity about what makes nader an appealing candidate. I had chalked some of it up to people just looking for something besides the status quo but I also know that is probably a small section of his support. So help educate your Mullinator in the ways of Nader. Also, **Swiddles** said > [@](#): > > I canā€™t believe weā€™re considering electing ANOTHER man with a sexual euphemism as a last name . Whatā€™s worse? Sex or violence? Bush or Gore. I at least like the idea of 4 years of titillation related snickering. ---

Voting for Nader too. Second time in a rowā€“heā€™s on the ballot this time, though. ---

Since Teddy Kennedy still wonā€™t return my calls, Iā€™m thinking of voting for Nader. I most likely will. Marylandā€™s a lock for Gore, and this liberal doesnā€™t quite like a lot of what Gore has to say.
