I think Ralph Nader is going to tell his party to vote for Kerry.
I think he will say I don't want to be the blame for 4 more year of Bush.
Hear is his chance to pay us back for putting us thought 4 year of Bush.

1. Did you see him on Letterman?
I doubt the selfish bastard will tell them to vote for anyone else.

2. Ain't gonna happen

Nader is a pompous ass.

He has been promised something if Bush gets elected.

He will never give up being the spoiler.

4. I hope you're right.
I think Nader is an egomaniac that can't let go of the past.

Of the two opinions, I honestly hope yours is more accurate.

6. Not going to happen...
I have a great amount of respect for Nader but I don't think there's any chance he will drop out of this race or put his support behind Kerry. He was interviewed by Olbermann on MSNBC a couple days ago and made it more than clear.

9. Nader is a sleeper spook-provocateur Princeton, Rumsfeld classmate
and brags about it on the stump.

Google Nader and Rumsfeld. Nader admires him.

Princetone is a chief spook recruitment wasp enclave and Nader was likely recruited in college and recruited specifically for this mission today: to keep the fasacists in power.

No respect for him ever again.

I believe he is a Bush spook.

and always has been a total fabricated cover story

7. If anything, he's obliged to Bush
After all the money and support the pukes poured into his campaign and getting his sorry ass on ballots by hiring petition forgers...

24. Well, now all he has to do is to convince Kerry
to have joint appearances.
:eyes:
Isn't it clear that Ralph Nader is totally delusional?
Joint appearances, my foot.

8. He's also taken
a few dollars from repugs bent on undermining Kerry's support any way they can. I don't think Ralph's going to support Kerry. He's got some backroom deal with the repugs IMHO.

15. Why?
He's done nothing but profit(however poorly...But profit none the less) from the relationship.

Ralph is an ass and is working against everything he professes to believe in.

laying next to me, sobbing her pledges of undieing love and loyalty into my shoulder as she pulls me over on top of her for the 23th time this weekend....

Hey, it's more original than "S'yeah, and monkeys might fly out of my ass" isn't it?

22. Ralph committing Sepuku on P-P-V would do nicely.
Shit, *I* would call and order that event!

16. Ralphie doesn't have a party
unless he's the only one in it. He's not a good person.

19. On todays Prairie Home Companion,
Keillor referred to Nader as "an air bag without a car".

21. Saw him interviewed on Olbermann
and he was specifically asked if he would withdraw from the race: he said no. Olbermann followed up with, "Even if your candidacy gives the election to Bush?" and he answered with some hogwash about how he is drawing more votes from Bush as a third candidate than from the Dems, but he thinks both parties are owned by corporations and he is the only blah blah blah. His hugely inflated ego will prevent him from doing the only right thing.

25. He's been on TV the last few days TRASHING Kerry/Edwards
so I really doubt it. Plus he has no party.

26. Which party?
The Naderites don't strike me as belonging to a party per se. Certainly, none of the true Green Party memebers are voting for him. I'm not sure about the Reform Party, but I doubt it.

27. nader's a freeper, a real good one
There's also that unmentionable point, that he is of lebanese
ethnic origin, and is probably getting the USA back for destroying
that part of the world... and what better way to destroy the USA,
a nation utterly untouchable from without... by simply getting
some hacks back in the WH to rot it down to the ground.

28. On the contrary, he is going to run TV ads and be on more TV shows
He not only will not endorse Kerry, but is going to be stepping up his profile as the alternate candidate with talk show appearances and new TV ads.

29. That would make too much sense.
And thus that is why it won't happen.
