...""I don't think so either."

A: "I don't think she will allow that. Not explicitly at least."

B: "I don't think so either."

1. Please comment on this dialogue.

2. Could B say 'Neither do I' instead?

3. How would you rephrase what A said?

Thank you

Peaceblinkfriend3. How would you rephrase what A said?
I'd be very surprised if she told us specifically that we could do that.

Thanks for your reply Marius Hancu.

So what would you say 'I don't think so either' or 'Neither do I'?

Thanks

Thanks for all your replies, Grammer Geek and Marius Hancu.

Am I correct that 'I don't think so either' is more formal than 'Neither do I' and 'Me neither' ?

I don't know about the first two, but "Me neither" is decidedly less formal than the other two.
