Every party needs a pooper

Headline says it all: Nader says he may run in 2008, especially if Hillary gets nomination.

What is wrong with this man? His first run in 2000 may have ushered in the Bush II era, but it may have been excused as quixotic but sincere. When he ran in 2004, much more ineffectually (but with the same result), it was embarrassing -- it was like your grandpa insisting he could still handle playing shortstop, when you knew he could hardly bend over. Now as we rev up for 2008, Nader's threat -- it can only be called that -- to run seems simply insane. Whatever credibility he once had has been squandered in these idiotic bids for attention.

You also have to wonder about the people who work for him. What could they be thinking? It's like the worst kind of enabling.
