And we know that had McR somehow become a serious contender in 2000
charges like these would have been spread like a virus.  Berlet would have
dug up a conference which McR attended with a LaRouchite or a conversation
he had with a neo-Nazi fifteen years ago.  A fight he had with a guy who
layed the carpet in his apartment would have been taken as an expression
of his contempt for the working class. His failure to appreciate rap music
or perhaps his enjoyment of classical music would have been taken as
indicative of his deeply rooted elitism or racism. Katha Pollitt would
have found some remark he made somewhere to be deeply and offensively
sexist etc.

All this is a depressing reminder of those who gleefully (pace NN)
imposed a similar purity test on Nader.

You have a lot to be ashamed about.
