Nader: Ex-DNC Chair Offered Money to Drop Out of ’04 Race
---------------------------------------------------------



The consumer advocate Ralph Nader is accusing former Democratic National
Committee chair Terry Mc Auliffe of trying to bribe him to stay off the
presidential ballot in 2004. Nader says Mc Auliffe offered his campaign
an unspecified amount of money if he withdrew in nineteen battleground
states. Mc Auliffe is currently running for the Democratic nomination in
Virginia’s gubernatorial race.
