    Tell it like it is, Joe

    I admit I've disagreed with quite a few of your recent columns - given their extreme Pro-Hillary, Anti-Obama bent - but you're right on target here about Ralph Nadir.

    Nadir's methods in his 2004 and now 2008 campaigns should dispel any illusions of this guy being progressive or liberal.

    A true progressive does not sell his soul to Republicans just to feed a huge ego. I suspect any Green Party loyalists with a head on their shoulders would be disappointed and ashamed in Ralph's desperate, sycophantic alliance with the GOP...

    It was true in 2000, and now it is true more than ever: a vote for Nadir is a vote from the Republicans.
