Both parties have people making “not good enough” arguments against the nominee, and both parties as a whole view such people the same way-—as spoilers and as responsible for the election of the other guy.

If people feel strongly justified in not voting for their party’s candidate, fine. But they should at least acknowledge that their act of (1) refusing to vote, or (2) voting for a protest candidate who has no chance of winning makes them responsible for the election of the other guy.

If people are unwilling to acknowledge that, then at least acknowledge that the rest of the party views their act that way.

“Clinton said Nader — who says environmental policies are central to his platform — “prevented Al Gore from being the greenest president we could have had.””

So, finally, Ralph Nader made himself useful and Hillary Clinton wants to feed him crap about it? Sheesh. has she no shame?

Oh, yeah... right...

GO RALPH, GO!

In a land where stupidity is both ubiquitous and monumental, Ralph Nader is clearly in the running for Most Stupid American.

[AbeKrieger]

Perhaps the spoiler here is the Democrat party, who put up candidates so unworthy as to make Ralph Nader look like a viable option.

Reminder: I need a Nadar bumper sticker for the Corvair.

“He thought that there was no difference between Al Gore and George Bush, and, eight years later, I think people realize that Ralph did not know what he was talking about,” Obama said at a town hall meeting Sunday.”

Obama is right. Al Gore wouldn’t have gotten us deeper into the corn-ethanol scam. Gore preferred the greater carbon credit trading scam.

Clinton also said Nader "is responsible for George W. Bush"

For someone who's only credential is being the first lady as a result of H.Ross Perot, this is indeed an interesting statement.

Nader is a joke, not a spoiler. In 2000 he meant something, not now.

If Clinton thought Gore would have been the best President ever, why didn’t the Democrats run Al Gore in 2004 to “correct” their mistake? Why isn’t he running this year? Is he no longer capable of being the “best president ever”?

... Nader, who turns 74 this week, ...

Ralph is a good subject for a book entitled Unsafe at Any Age.

Nader is a "mooroon" controled by Karl Rove..
Devilishly brilliant..

Clinton said that Nader prevented Al Gore from being the greenest President by drawing away votes from Al.
These Clinton's always seem to overlook basics such as a campaigner with the name of Ross Perot.
This Ross Perot sucked up 19% of conservative votes and guess what...
Bill Clinton won by garnering a 42% share at his presidential run, exclusively due to Ross Perot.
Needless to say Al Gore never would have had a Vice Presidential career, nor would have invented the Internet while serving, nor could have experienced defeat caused by Ralph Nader for his presidential run.
Global warming alarms and a Nobel for Al? Not without Perot.
