    I want to thank this fanatic for helping elect W in 2000. We could not have done it without him!

    Connecticut has, potentially, the two worst representatives in the United States Senate. Dodd was an enabler of the current and lamented national financial crisis. He saw to it that the financial "services" industry had the best regulation money could buy. Lieberman is nothing but a whiney, simian opportunist. Ralph should run!

    I did not notice many students at Ralph Nader's Labyrinth Books December 5 book signing appearance. Judging from a couple of previous comments here, it appears many in the University community may not have known about it.

    I sure hope he runs, he has a real chance in 2010. He's never really run to win before, just to make a statement, but this could actually get him into office.

    To Alum: You didn't know Al Gore won the 2000 election? The only vote George W. Bush won in 2000 was the Supreme Court's.

    Your comment assumes I would have voted for Al Gore were Ralph Nader not running for president nine years ago. You assume wrong.
