and he is pathetic.

4. What I've mostly heard thus far is plenty of rationale

as to why people shouldn't blame him for his role in the 2000 debacle. Sorry, Ralph, we have a reminder of your role every time * or one of his cronies gets up in front of the nation and tries to convince us that the latest dump they just took on us is really not the heaping POS we know it is. I haven't forgotten, and I won't think of you with any degree of fondness, Mr. I-have-two-right-hands, if a draft is reinstated and my son goes. Character does count, and you, sir, have the character of a weasel.

5. Says only Dennis is talking about labor

Thanks for the heads up.

6. I hate to say it but in general he's absolutely correct

I am ABB, I think Nader should not have run this time, he's being self-destructive to his own cause, etc. etc.etc.

However, IMO he is absolutely accurate in his basic analysis of the issues and the failure of the prsent political system to really address them, and the threat to democracy that exists, and the Democrat's role in all of that.

[Kanary]

7. That's right... he's on target

And if he pushes it right, he could end up helping the DEM cause by keeping it on track.
