DescriptionDemocrats See Nader As a Menace on Margins

He's dropped in polls that gave him one lonely digit to begin with and seen friends peel away - even fall melodramatically to their knees begging him to quit. Even a little bit of Ralph Nader is too much for Democrats. They are sparing no effort to see him finish this race for the White House as nothing more than a pesky asterisk. The consumer advocate has qualified for the presidential ballot in fewer than a dozen states and is soldiering on through a battery of deadlines this month in many others, with Democrats or surrogates launching hair-trigger challenges wherever they find an opening. Polls suggest the battle for the White House has already come down to a struggle over a small proportion of undecided voters, with the rest already sold on either Republican President Bush or Democrat John Kerry. In that circumstance, analysts say, these are not promising times for an independent.
