Well, we've got this Johnny Lewis in the outfield. They hit a ball to him yesterday, and he turned left, then he turned right, then he went straight back and caught the ball. He made three good plays in one. And Greg Goossen, he's only twenty and with a good chance in ten years of being thirty. ~baseball great Casey Stengel, when asked how the Mets were doing

That is why the two dominant parties wanted nothing to do with debating Nader. Those questions were better unbroached as far as they were concerned. Too many political pitfalls. IMO, of course.
