Reading the liblogs is like watching a character on TV watching TV -- the difference being that the TV actor knows that he or she is playing make-believe. Most libloggers have yet to reach such awareness.

In an interview with the Rocky Mountain News, independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader says he's disappointed with Barack Obama: "There's onl...

What's wrong with a divided convention? The new conventional wisdom is that a Democratic fight will doom the party. Maybe. It's possible. But it's hardly guaranteed.

With all the questions being asked about Hillary's "Red Phone" moments in the past, people are missing the fact that Hillary Clinton is in crisis mode right now.

I would love to see the possibility of third and even fourth party candidates on the ballots for president. This country would benefit immensely if we...

The main stream media must be experiencing a lull in political stories they feel are news-worthy. We have been deluged with coverage that seems questionably relevant.

WASHINGTON — Independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader selected Matt Gonzalez, a former member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, t...

I don't think it matters that Ralph Nader's running. It didn't matter in 2004. How many people even remember he ran in 2004? So it's silly to make a big issue of it.

Instead of pleading and complaining for Nader to leave the race, why don't we complain to the eventual Democratic nominee to fight just as hard for Nader votes as McCain votes?

Ralphie Boy, I'm not asking you to drop out of the race because you might mess things up. I'm asking you to drop out of the race because of your own legacy.

Ralph Nader's sudden entry into this tight presidential race proves one thing, if nothing else: it's time for John Edwards to come back out of the shadows, and into the ring.

I propose we impeach Ralph Nader, without whom the election of George Bush never would have been possible.

After years of personal mutation and negative growth, much of it spent inhaling his own fumes, Nader has finally morphed into the final form known to all business people.

Ralph Nader has a problem: he doesn't understand the web as well as the web understands him. Message to Ralph: It's not the 1970s any more. It's not even the 1990s any more.

Does Nader really think he's more exciting than Clinton or Obama? He's living in the past. The problem is, he could, once again, destroy our future.

Politics is all about perception, and the perception of Ralph Nader's first run was that of a tragedy. His redux in 2004 was more of a farce. His run this time will be doomed to be pathetic.

Huckabee's still in the race for the same reason Al Sharpton ran when he did; the same reason Ralph Nader is running. Give up? You see, folks, these people run because they have nothing to do.

If the Academy Awards could give a lifetime achievement award for vainglorious pomposity and self-indulgence, the Oscar goes to Ralph Nader.

It's ironic that Ralph Nader, this generation's most prominent critic of corporate privilege, handed the presidency to George W. Bush.
Allison Kilkenny | Posted 02.24.2008 | Politics
Ralph Nader steals nothing from politicians who don't willingly surrender their campaigns to mediocrity, or voters who cast ballots true to their consciences.
