Yes, and get the new one a 1024x768 screen so that they can see that
all of their excessive spacing around menu items means that the end
of the menu ends up way off the bottom of the screen, then requiring
the page to be scrolled without using the scroll bar - even if using
a laptop without a mouse wheel or equivalent - while ensuring that
the pointer is always positioned where the menu both is and will be.
This becomes increasingly difficult once large sub-menus become
involved.

Also, show them a user who is fed up with the above obstacles
switching to a browser or view setting which doesn't use CSS, so
that they can get to the links with them ever-visible (albeit
terribly formatted). If the designer survives the shock of seeing
their flashy web page reduced to black and white text topped with
an endless string of links and mis-located images, they might be
alright.
