Nader predicts Bush win?
During the Larry King interview with Bill Maher this past week, Larry said that Nader has predicted a Bush win. Bill was surprised by this and then they showed a film clip of Bill and Michael Moore down on their knees begging Nader not to run. Has anyone heard any more about Nader's statement?

21. Nader's an ass
He either doesn't get it or doesn't want to get it.

2. Wishful thinking on his part
He hopes Bush wins because he thinks this will advance the chances of a third party run for him in 2008.

13. 2008??? He's too old NOW!
I realize he is trying to promote the third party idea, and I don't even disagree with that. But to think he's hoping for 2008 is irrational.

14. Well, there certainly isn't any point in Nader running
since he admits he hasn't got an ice cube's chance in hell of winning

10. Nader on 24 state ballots; Libertarians: 44 states; Constitution Party: 35
Nader is not going to have the most impact, nationwide.

11. then why is Nader running? if he's predicting the winner?
I thought Nader was running because he was convinced he could form a coalition of DEMs and REPs disgusted with both parties?
And why does he(or the GOP) fight so hard to get him on the ballot?hmm

it's all rather pointless

20. Nader wants the Republicans to win
Nader doesn't see much difference between the Republicans and Democrats, only the Republicans are a little worse (according to him), so under the Republicans things will get worse faster until America realizes Nader is telling the one true message and we should all follow him.

16. Nader relishes his role as a spoiler.
He is all puffed up with self-importance, knowing that he managed to throw Florida to Bush in 2000, resulting in Gore losing the election.

Nader figures that if he cannot have the presidency, he will deny it to Kerry if he can. He is a bitter old man now, and he doesn't give a damn if Bush destroys the country.

19. Nader is an assclown
I can only imagine the beatdown that self-important tool is going to get if he causes Kerry to lose.

Nader bashing will take on an entirely new meaning, I'm afraid.
