In his run for the White House, Ralph Nader is getting help from an unexpected source: Republicans. Of the $1 million that Nader has raised for his campaign so far, about $50,000 is from donors who have also given to President George W. Bush's campaign.

Richard Egan, Bush's former ambassador to Ireland, his son John and his daughter-in-law Pamela each contributed the maximum $2,000 donation to Nader's effort.

This is an interesting tactic.
