...he has opened the door, at long last, to the possibility that Ralph Nader is just a "portentious, sucking low-pressure zone", an insatiable ego with nothing to offer but a request that we give him the strokes he so desperately wants.
Sorry, dataguyx, while I kinda like your Syphillis theory, Nader would be way beyond the tertiary stage by now, unless he's already dead (which is a thought). He began the lunacy in the mid-1960s and seems to have plateaued now.
Conason's piece may well be partisan hackery (an arguemnt could be made, given the content, but I just don't want to believe that), but it is also a very clear analysis of an impotent megalomaniac-in-waiting. It's time to turn the whole page, not just fold it at the corner.
Ralph, the party never even started. No more ice. Unsafe at any age. See ya.
