they are simply playing their part in the shadow play. I see those who are calling the dems cowardly, etc. are still hiding from the truth: we are ruled by one party with two heads, who put on a sham fight to give us the illusion of choice as they rule us in the name of the elite. the dems are not stupid: they are simply following the path best suited to corporate interests, just like the republicans. For a while I thought Nader might have been wrong about the Democrats, but really it was only Bush's incompetence that clouded the issue. I should have seen it when Gore did not contest the election in 2000. He said he didn't because he wanted us to have confidence in our system of government. I see now he didn't contest the election because he didn't want to rock the corporate boat. If one of the leading Democrats is elected, we will simply have a competent Bush [= coporate interest figurehead].
