Re: Who is safest candidate for preserving online poker?
I think I think elect-ability has to be a concern here (hence why I wouldn't turn to Nader).
I frankly don't trust either party on this issue. Certainly, Sen. Kyl is certainly Enemy #1 in regards to online gaming; every other federal politician is under suspicion as being possibly opposed if politically convenient, and Rep. John Conyers gets my vote as the most (and only) internet gaming-friendly member of Congress (at least to my knowledge, he's the only member of Congress who's ever proposed legislation to legalize & regulate internet gaming).
Since neither Kyl nor Conyers will be running for President, I don't know of anyone in either party rumored to be running whom I have any kind of faith or trust in protecting the interests of online poker players.
But as others have said, I'm not particularly concerned about it, either.
