I wish Nader would do the decent thing and end his campaign. It has become obvious that he is being used.

5. Nader Lawyers appealed and they was Back on the ballot again |
|
This was their last appeal an their last step. The DEM's lawyers proved that 70% on the sign petitions was phony. Late today the judged agreed Nader is done in Pa.

Motherf*ckin' asswhore for Bush. I hate him even more than Bush. I honestly hope something really nasty happens to him, and soon. Pancreatic cancer would be nice.

10. And this is a good thing? For democracy in general, I mean? |
|
This kind of thing isn't befitting for a supposedly free land. Say what you want about Nader being an egomaniac, I agree, but keeping him of the ballot is just another affirmation of the injustice of the two party system.

16. Yeah, being on a ballot is bad for democracy... |
|
Can I ask for an explanation for that? Why should he even have to get any signatures just to be on a ballot? That's just ridiculous. Having more choices is good for democracy, even if you perceive those choices to be a threat.

17. That's fantastic news. |
|
Nader is nothing but a thorn in the Kerry campaign's side and I'm glad he has been silenced. We don't need crap like that polluting our ballots.
