…especially if Hillary gets the nomination (San Francisco Chronicle). He says he’s going to wait and see what the Democrats come up with. Many hold Nader responsible for bringing us Bush and Co. I am all for an idealist gadfly who can push the Democrats toward more progressive stances but his intransigence and egotism appear boundless. However, he is not the problem but only a symptom of a system which does not have room for idealism and a segment of the liberal voting public too myopic to realize that (amongst all the other versions of voter myopia that plague the American electorate…) If he runs, I hope that those who voted for him in the past have learned their lesson and will not play their small but perhaps decisive part in handing the election to the Republicans again.
