[Meta] Summary of Nader analysis

[Lisa & Ian Murray]

JKS>>Be clear: anyone who tells you, like Nathan, that there is no
alternative
but the Dems is telling you that there is no alternative, no hope, and
nothing left of the left. That's what Brad says: we are in the Iron Cage,a
nd we cannot ever get out. That may be true, but I'm not convinced yet.

An even more pathetic version of the end of [US] history. Welcome to the age
of redundancy where experiments in the "laboratories of democracy" are
verboten. Well, with the possible exception of, gasp!, getting rid of the
electoral college. After that, all hail what Louis Hartz called a "colossal
liberal absolutism". Nathan and Brad as our own Francis Fukuyama groupies.
