17. RFK Jr damaged his credibility by leaping onto the Thimerosal bandwagon
I'm glad that the stolen election is getting some mainstream attention, but Bobby has recently demonstrated himself to be easily swayed by appeals to emotion.

It would be to our benefit if a more reliably objective advocate were to take up this issue. As it is, RFK's conclusions might be (unreasonably) attacked as unsound simply because he has been wrong before. Also, he's widely lampooned in the media as being a Liberal Treehugger, so he's going to be mocked from the get-go.

Again, it's great that the election is at long last getting media attention, even if the messenger isn't my ideal choice.


And RFK Jr. should definitely not be on the 08 ballot.
