I myself wound up voting for Gore-the-lesser-evil, but I must say I've had an earful of criticism directed at Nader. I resent the increasingly vituperative tone of the attacks on him and by the pack-like nature of his critics, who are really ganging up on the guy. I hope Gore wins the recount because he's Not-Bush. But I can't help but admire Nader even if he does prove to be a spoiler and does put Bush into office. Nader stands for far more of the policies and priorities I agree with than Gore, and I will continue to respect and salute him as a good and courageous man.

BTW, Forget the CIA, Gloria S. is probably more deserving of censure for hanging out with Mortimer Zuckerman :)
