Nader has accomplished more to destroy progressive causes than anyone I can name Coyotl Jul 2013 #47

I find it so amazing the arrogance displayed by some democrats... eqfan592 Jul 2013 #94

Ralph "No Difference Between Bush and Gore" is a political genius BeyondGeography Jul 2013 #7

Yeah, if Nader ever did anything good, that more than tarnished it. No diff between Bush and Gore stevenleser Jul 2013 #10

good luck with that mikeysnot Jul 2013 #12

No luck needed. It's his permanent legacy. nt stevenleser Jul 2013 #15

yes, it is mikeysnot Jul 2013 #58

My balls still hurt from that BeyondGeography Jul 2013 #22

Agreed. Nader's 2000 Ego Trip Gave Us Eight Years Of Dubya Vogon_Glory Jul 2013 #30

WRONG! The SCOTUS gave us Dubya in a bloodless coup that eviscerated the HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #44

Some people think 2000 was a corporate coup. raouldukelives Jul 2013 #50

SCOTUS wouldn't have been able to do it without Nader drawing so many votes away in FLA Hekate Jul 2013 #92

without Nader though, SCOTUS becomes irrelevant hfojvt Jul 2013 #99

I Will Continue to Blame Ralph For 2000 Vogon_Glory Jul 2013 #108

I blame Gore for 2000. He violated the first precept of American politics which is that HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #109

At the time, it was a relatively unknown GW Bush vs. Gore and his sidekick, Lieberman. Marr Jul 2013 #103

I was there...it was nightmarishly stupid at the time BeyondGeography Jul 2013 #105

It didn't fool me either, but it wasn't as laughable as it seems today. Marr Jul 2013 #106

"Twelve percent of Florida Democrats (over 200,000) voted for Republican George Bush" klook Jul 2013 #11

Which might matter if one could control how everyone registered. You can register GOP if you want stevenleser Jul 2013 #16

My point is, continuing to focus on Nader as the sole reason we lost the 2000 election is inaccurate klook Jul 2013 #28

Two points: riqster Jul 2013 #33

My point is that Nader deserves some of the blame and the exculpatory reasoning you provided doesnt stevenleser Jul 2013 #39

he's not the sole reason, obviously (ie SCOTUS), but to say he wasn't a factor is silly. dionysus Jul 2013 #52

yup, George Zimmerman was registered as a Democrat JI7 Jul 2013 #93

Nader's crime against humanity was being on the ballot in the first place Gman Jul 2013 #21

If Nader committed a 'crime against humanity,' then why did Gore concede? No one HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #45

Because he was not ready for a hot civil war nadinbrzezinski Jul 2013 #57

The blood of many thousands is on Nader's hands Gman Jul 2013 #90

Oh, puh-leeze. Without Hillary's and Kerry's assent (and the assent of many other prominent Dems), HardTimes99 Jul 2013 #102

What you say would be irrelevant had Nader nor run Gman Jul 2013 #111

I agree with him on competition within the party davidpdx Jul 2013 #17

Not that he's necessarily wrong here, but why does Nader never attack the Republicans this same way? WinkyDink Jul 2013 #18

Because they financed his run in 2000? riqster Jul 2013 #29

;-) WinkyDink Jul 2013 #56

Because they don't claim to be on the side of the People. MrSlayer Jul 2013 #36
