[lbo-talk] Ballot Statuses: Nader vs. Cobb

[B.]

Ah, Nader vs Cobb, I guess they are running against
each now, too, then, technically, eh? (And what was
that about LaMarche, Cobb's VP candidate, saying she'd
vote Kerry? And Nader recommending Kerry pick up
Edwards as VP, which Kerry did, only so Nader could
continue to oppose him?) Seriously, do you know how
many regular people out there are confused about the
whole Nader and Cobb thing? Most people I speak with
assume Nader is still the Green candidate. I've told
them, no, Cobb is, officially. Well, who is that guy?
they ask. He's the Green guy, like Nader was in 2000.
Now Nader is an independent--the Greens rejected him,
but he is still running, so they might astill be able
to vote him.

To a lot of people, it seems bizarre and confusing.
