"I love how you guys trash Pat for only getting 0.25% of the vote in 2000. You guys call him belittle him constantly for having little or no impact on the election. Now you try to claim that he could cost Bush votes. Which is it? Is Pat a large motivating force or isn't he?"

Oh good grief. Must I explain that Buchanon running as a 3rd Party candidate in 2000, getting 0.25% of the popular vote is *DIFFERENT* than Buchanon in 2004 *endorsing* GWB in such a way that Blacks, Jews, and Hispanics suddenly pay attention to a race and a political ticket (e.g. Kerry/Edwards) that they had largely ignored up to this point?!

Oh you can try to explain it that way.  It will be the ultimate in stupidity on the subject, but be my guest.

I'm just curious.  Do you know who you are going to vote for yet?  Don't you think most people do?  Whites, Jews, blacks, hispanics, Christians, moslems, Vietnamese, Japanese, in fact just about all U.S. citizens have probably made up their minds.  In light of this, who really cares about Buchanan's endorsement other than some anti-Buchanan nut-job.

See post #79. It isn't about "who." It is about "how many."

You seem to have failed my test already. Tsk. Tsk...
