Nader to Crash Dems' Party?
For the 30,000 Democrats gathering in Boston, Ralph Nader remains public enemy number two, behind only President Bush. Beneath the convention speeches, the delegate banter, the concern persists that the independent candidate will once again stand between a Democrat and the Oval Office.

Nader plans on coming to Boston Wednesday, if not to calm their concerns, then to crash a party he sees as celebrating the wrong ideals. If he can get credentialed, Nader said in a phone interview from his home in Washington, D.C, he hopes to shock Democrats inside the FleetCenter. And if he does, the highly scripted convention will face the one curveball it hoped to avoid.

"I would like to see the bazaar. I'd like to see the alcoholic-musical-political payoff bazaar of accounts receivable," Nader said. "I would like to be there at the convention to watch. I will try to get credentials… I may try as a syndicated columnist, which I've been for 35 years. Let's see if they are against reporters."

Nader is a selfish, self-serving prick!

#2-27 would be Ashcroft to Zakheim.

Anyway, he's really losing it lately. A couple years back I would get a bit annoyed at all the Nader-bashing around here, but... what the fuck is wrong with him?

Alcoholic?

Geez.

And since when did columnist = reporter?

by now.

This is a perfect example of his ego over riding any common sense or common decency this man once had.

I wonder how many republicans are paying him to be a thorn in the side of the democratic convention? Are you making big bucks off this stunt Ralph? I am CERTAIN Faux News will give you credentials! Asshole.
