2. He jumped in the last race...
and made no difference. He is completely irrelevant.

10. Since his audience is on the college campuses (or used to be),
I don't think you Obama followers need to worry about it. Most people will not give him the time of day, much less a precious vote.

4. IMO, he'll jump in and have no effect
He's a non issue these days.

5. He's like one of those cicadas...every 4 years he burrows out his grave and makes a lot of noise.
Then we hear absolutely nothing from the egotistical blowhard until the next 4 years.

7. Nobody cares about him
Nobody would even know what he's doing except these media outlets keep giving him a voice for unknown reasons. In 2004 he was completely marginalized (remember that silly debate video he made with puppets?) and I expect it will be the same this time around.

8. If Obama is the nominee, Nader will get less of the vote than he received in 2004
Maybe 0.2% of the vote. At that point you are talking about people so moonbat that the Democrats would have to nominate Marx or Lenin for them to vote Democratic.

9. I hope Nader does get into the race
Republicans will donate money to him, thinking they're helping to siphon votes away from the Democratic candidate, when in fact they'd be doing not much more than setting their own money on fire and flushing the flaming embers down the toilet.

11. Why? He's old news and meaningless.
He'll be lucky to draw his usual 1%. Nader is a threat to no one.

12. He's on "Press the Meat" tomorrow and is rumored to be
announcing whether or not he's running.

14. I don't think Nader is going to be a threat.
Besides, Gore did win. Take the sour grapes up with the supremes rather than shit on the greens who were trying to run a viable candidate like anybody else. Instead of honestly examining why Nader did well with progressives, we must demonize him and the people who voted for him (who probably vote dem 95% of the time). Nader is such a good strawman. Booga-booga! The Nader will get you!

him probably would not vote anyhow. :dem:

16. Let the little pissant do his worst. Ralph Nader WILL NOT cost us another election
He WILL NOT cost us more supreme court justices. Our people aren't that stupid.

21. I agree. History has turned the page with him. He should worry about turning into Gus Hall.

24. Or, even worse, a Harold Stassen....a joke without a punchline....
A totally inconsequential random collection of cells.
