READING, Pa. - Ralph Nader, appearing Saturday at the Green Party's national convention, said he is considering a 2008 presidential run but accused Democrats of trying to shut smaller parties out of the political process.


Waaaaaaaah! They won't sit back and let me attack them!

Nader said he is mulling a 2008 presidential run, but before jumping in he would have to put together an organization of thousands of volunteers and pro bono lawyers to defend him against the "Democratic quadrennial assault."


Quadrennial assault, lol! Now we have a name for our movement!

But here's the part that's really revealing.

Later, addressing a few hundred conventioneers chanting "Run Ralph Run," Nader exhorted Greens to focus on raising money to boost their competitiveness.


I am against any left-wing third party; this just shows you there are still Naderites in the Green Party.
