60 Minutes bombshell on Karl Rove tonight. MSNBC and AP ask if Obama is "exposed" as a "domestic insurgent." The U.S. continues to establish permanent bases in virtually every Middle Eastern country.

    -If the above sounds angry, I suppose it is somewhat. Instead of demonizing Nader, democrats should honestly listen to what he has to say, and adopt what seems good of that to their own platform, and their own campaigns. It wouldn't hurt Obama or Clinton one bit to echo many of the statements that Nader made today on MTP.-

    Agreed again. Though I support Obama over Clinton, I believe that Nader has much to bring to the discussion and it can only serve to elevate the quality of the discussion.

    Strictly statistically speaking, in a presidential primary season where the Dems turnout is doubling the GOP turnout, coupled with the expected percentage of the vote Ralph can garner (2.75 in 2000 and .014 in 2004 if I am correct and likely to trend downward), I say lets have at it.

    At the risk of repeating myself, Ralph says (paraphrasing this time) if the Dems can't landslide the Republicans this year then its time to dismantle the party and start something new from scratch.

    BTW, my sister just phoned me from Seattle minutes ago to tell me that her friend, Sally Soriana has been selected as Nader's national campaign strategist. Small world.
