Nader Exploring a Possible 2008 Spoiler Candidacy

What's old is new again.

So Ralph Nader has launched an exploratory website that ironically asks "Which side are you on?" Right back at you Ralph.

Last time around Nader was backed by Koch's rightwing think tank/corporate front group, Citizens for a Sound Economy (now FreedomWorks) (1,2,3), so don't be surprised this time when the billionaire-financed rightwing attack machine Freedom's Watch backs him with their supposed $250 million dollar war chest. (4) I'm just saying. CNN's Abbi Tatton tells that Nader is saying that if he can "raise 10 million dollars and to rustle up enough lawyers to help him get ballot access, then he is definitely going to do this." We already know Ralph doesn't have a conscience problem with getting his back scratched by republicans. (5)

Nader just plain sucks.

[ProphecyGuru]

Anyone that opposes third party ballot rights doesn't deserve to call themselves American. Period.

[Rachel130989]

Why are people so against Nader?  how can a country which is 'supposedly' the most democratic in the world get so peeved over someone and his voters, just because they try and stray away from the two horse dictastorship (democrats vs. republicans)?

[marissacalderon]

And so was Gore. He was another CFR member, and people actually think things would have been different if he was elected, HA!

[Faelsun]

Nader is not Abraham Lincoln, Nader is just another hack playing you just like the Democrats and Republicans do, if he is so different why has he been so good at Union Busting his own

companies? Nader has taken millions from Republicans. If Nader really cared he would have tried to build a real coalition to win houses and Senate seats not pop up every four years to make millions and loose quickly. He hasnt done the work needed to win that is why he won't win he is an opportunist.

The Democrats and Republicans are two sides of the same coin. They're BOTH part of the problem, NOT the solution! One might have called Abaham Lincoln a spoiler way back when. At the time, he was a third party candidate. Luckily for us, it was easier for a third party candidate to garner attention back then. Nowadays we have the mainstream media telling us what to watch, read, listen to, what to think and who to vote for. Too bad sheeple like you can't realize that and act on it.

Go to hell Nader!! You Republican Hack!

Lay down on your Laurels and take a Fucking nap!

[generatrix999]

Dems Republicans aren't challenging corporate america, while Nader and Ron Paul are.

There's no difference between GOP and RNC major media hopefulls, they're all corporate backed patsy's and if you vote for them your a traitor to the republic.

Look into the CFR agenda. Clinton's, Obama, Mccain, Huckabee are all CFR members.

Don't we have two socialists already running on the democratic side? What the hell throw another one in the mix!

[4ourthofjuly]

I wonder why y'all arent getting all mad at the socialist party, or the green party?

If you vote for democrats automatically, every two years, theyll disregard you. Only when they think they dont already have your vote will they have to work for it.

This strategizing is much more simple than taking a shower, do you need me to explain that as well?

[Graham1983]

hopefully the U.S. doesnt survive at all!
