Because Reid got after Republicans for trying to sabotage the Iran peace deal.

This week, Ralph Nader returned to the political stage with a new book, Unstoppable, whose triumphant subtitle is The Emerging Left-Right Alliance to Dismantle the Corporate State. To kick off his publicity tour, he has argued that liberals should "definitely" impeach President Barack Obama, abandon the "international militarist" Hillary Clinton, and instead embrace Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) as a possible leader of his dream coalition.

Fascinating. Two folks who DUers frequently argue about. And they have outed themselves here.

"{H}e has argued that liberals should... instead embrace Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) as a possible leader of his dream coalition."

Here's what the article says:

But Nader qualified that the success of his envisioned left-right alliance is dependent on strong leaders. He said Sen. Rand Paul, son of Ron Paul, has the potential to be a leader for the alliance, but added that he thinks the Kentucky Republican has certain shortcomings as a leader.

“He’s a mixed bag, you know, he's evolving. He's broadening his issues that he's talking about and they’re beginning to resonate,” Nader said. “On the other hand … he has problems dealing with people.”

Hardly embracing, but that kind of mischaracterization is to be expected from somebody who tries to legitimize Fox News by going on and acting as a Democratic punching bag.
