Kerry Getting Free Advice

I am really torn by the Nader candidacy. I do not wish to vote for him and I will vote Kerry. However, I do see some good in this, perhaps Liberals pushing from both inside and outside the party are what it will take to bring together a progressive platform for America. On the other hand I don't want the presidency handed to Bush. I am not sure about a living wage. With how poorly business is doing now..it seems like it would only cost us more small business jobs with the rising cost of healthcare and all..

1. Voting third party would be super awesome, dood. Or in this case, Ind.

But, getting Dubya out of office is just a bit too important. So I'll be voting Kerry. :)

2. I don't understand this

He told Paula Zahn even if Kerry adopts all of his 9 point plans he would still not drop out. I don't understand why he would risk having Bush in office another 4 years. I don't mind if hes in the race, but at least only campaign in the safe states. Don't compromise the swing states. According to a recent village voice article he actively campaigned in swing states such as florida 2 weeks before the election. Why would he do this? Why??
