Ralph Nader decides to endorse Hillary Clinton after all


Ralph Nader Decides To Endorse The Inevitable Candidate

Washington, D.C. –– Hillary Rodham Clinton, a presidential candidate for the 2008 elections, finally won the endorsement of Ralph Nader—a man who usually largely rejected anything the Clintons had to do with politically. Clinton will now use Nader's surprising support as leverage to win the votes of members of the Green Party, hippies and peaceniks, non-voting unregistered populations and those who voted for Nader in past elections.

“Three out of four voters describe the word ‘Naderite’ as an insult, so I'm trying to change that perception by backing the Senator from New York", Nader said. He continued, "it is all but inevitable that she will be the nominee and frankly, I'm tired of getting on planes to Milwaukee, Dallas and other towns I personally find offense to from a dining standpoint. The Greens wouldn't supply me with needed medicinal marijuana to endure the Presidential journey, so I said to hell with it."

Nader was given a vintage Corvair for his endorsement by a supporter unlinked with the official campaign.

5. A hint that it was my wacky taste in satire...
Ralph Nader is smiling.

That would have been your first hint. I've never seen him actually smile.

:rofl:

6. Well, his parties would be bigger!
I'll never forget his announcement speech in 2004. I watched it on CSPAN and was utterly amazed. He was obviously in a hotel meeting room (and not even a nice one), there were a few balloons taped around the place, and there were all of twenty people present. Hell, the attendees were probably the decorators and had to stay and clean up, too. Not that I have a problem with candidates saving money, but jeez! He was running for POTUS, not president of the local book club. I almost felt sorry for the guy...until I recalled his tactics in 2000.

I just :rofl: instead.

Nader jumped the shark long ago.
