Nader asks why all the liberals are hiding
Ralph Nader arrives tomorrow for a quick campaign swing through what should be friendly territory: Seattle, Olympia and on to Eugene, Ore.
Those are places where Democrats lean to the left and support the likes of Howard Dean and Dennis Kucinich. Folks that four years ago might have supported Nader, even.

But as Nader travels the country on his independent campaign for president he has found that disaffected Democrats aren't so disaffected that they'll support him.

-snip-

Some conservatives are. There were reports this week that some of the same people who funded the anti-Kerry Swift Boat Veterans for Truth campaign have also donated to his campaign.

2. Nader should be in hiding. American and Iraqi blood is on his hands
He effectively put a criminal in the White House and horribly
slandered a good man -- Al Gore.

6. The sad part is that if he hadn't done this
I would be much more receptive to his message. The things he claims to stand for are not bad things. But he goes about it in the wrong way and demands to make his point no matter what the consequences. In that way he's like Dumbya, he'll drive straight...into a wall if necessary. Too bad his stubborness may bring us all down with him.

12. Nader's only agenda is to bring this country down
He figures if he can get Bush elected, the country will be in shambles in four years. Then he can waltz in and save us.

5. Note to Ralph: Liberals aren't hiding. They are ignoring you
cuz you are in the employ of the junta puppetmasters and we know it.

P.S. That thing Cheney said to Leahy... you too.

7. Nader is such a damned idiot....
...I swear this guy is walking around all day with his head up his ass so he can't hear people telling him the truth.How much is this guy willing to make this country suffer to make his point?For once he should put this stuff aside and help get Bush out but he doesn't give a fuck,he is a broken record.I use to respect Nader now I wouldn't cross the street to spit on him.

8. Nader is a danger to the world, and here's why
Nader can do all the rationalizing he wants as to why it is necessary for him to run for president, but the fact and he knows it, is that by running he is making it very possible that Bush, a menace to the world, will be re-elected.....This makes Nader a dangerous and reckless man, IMO.

9. He was on C-Span this morning
& slammed the Dems & Kerry, all the while describing how he will help beat Bush.

He has lost ALL credibility.
