The Nader factor in 2000 election

IF NOT for Ralph Nader in 2000, there'd be no need for impeachment in 2005.

I agree with Nader and Kevin Zeese that impeachment should be considered for President Bush and Vice President Cheney (op ed, May 31). Not surprisingly, however, there remains no acknowledgment of responsibility by Nader for his dubious role in remaining in the 2000 presidential race long after he'd made his points. It was a decision that, in the eyes of many, led directly to the Bush/Cheney Electoral College debacle in the 2000 election.

So how about it, Ralph, do you still see no difference between George W. Bush and and Al Gore?
