| 6. Nader just called Dean a run-of-the-mill Democrat |

as Governor of Vermont on C-Span. He's got his eye on Howard, complimented him on his Internet/Meet-Up tactics, but he's clearly not convinced that he and Dean are ideological soul-mates. I think he sees Dean as a calculating politician. Go figure.
Nader also ripped Dean for saying he would not cut defense spending.
He reiterated his support for Kucinich.
Howard is all things to all people and has a clear history as a moderate. If I had strong left-wing views and supported DK, what leverage would I gain by giving my vote to Dean (who's probably going to move to the center anyway) at this point of the race?
