Nooooooooooo!!!!!
Ralph Nader is considering running for president again! Does he derive some type of sexual gratification from screwing up elections? I can't think of any other reason for him to run again accept as a form of sabotage. He only got 2.7% of the popular vote in 2000 so he can't possibly be deluded enough to think he can win. Or can he?

Who would still vote for this guy? I know they say that every vote counts, but guess what, if you vote for Nader you vote does NOT count. Not voting is actually more productive then voting for him.
While his running in 2000 did help Bush get elected, there is no one on the ballot next year who I would not be mortified to hear becoming president. In a race where no single party has put up a worthy candidate, maybe he figures he has a shot.

Actually, I think a vote for Nader does count... as a vote for the Republican candidate. Lets face it - he's not stealing any Republican votes. Any votes he gets are likely to be at the Dems' expense.
Nader is the poster child for instant runoff voting. Then there wouldn't be any spoiler/wasted votes.

I take on Independent status and I wouldn't vote for Nader. I think this the first time since I was 18that I have even been remotely interested in a Republican candidate. I like Obama on the Democratic side and Romney on the Republican side. Back in the day, I would have voted for Reagan.
