You could be right, but I suspect a compromise will be reached well before it becomes an issue of concern to the general voting public. 1968 was a close one, and elements on the left didn't help. If you are referring the the Nader vote, then the left also did contribute to the defeat, however it also took the Republicans going to the Supreme Court to block recounts. I'm not sure why you'd include 1980. That one worked to Reagan's advantage. "KKKos"? I've had my disagreements with Kos but see far more elements of both the KKK and Soviet style government control under the Repubicans than from Kos. You can't have it both ways. The Democrats can't be both exercising Soviet style control (which is more applicable to the Republicans) and at the same time not be an organized political party in the Will Rogers sense. Dave,
