A Mini-Watergate? - against the Dems!
2004-07-09
Do not go gentle into that good night...
Democrats could be participating in a "mini-Watergate" effort to get Ralph Nader out of the presidential picture, the consumer advocate charged Thursday. "They’re hiring lawyers to go up to technicalities in places like Arizona, they infiltrated our political convention," Nader, an independent candidate for president, told FOX News on Thursday. "I spoke to John Kerry and said ’you’d better look into it because it could be a mini-Watergate, possibly."
Looks like Ralph is getting pissed enough to where he will not "just go away" like the Dems want him to do... Nice thing is it shows the REAL way the "Democrat" Party has come to operate much liek the COmmunist Party of the SOviet Union - underhanded and powermad. Think we will see this outside of Foxnews? Nah, doubt it.

#11  I can see pumping units (oil wells) from my front porch as I look out across the southern San Joaquin Valley and live in a conservative county (Kern) I can't see Kerry/Edwards losing the population centers. There will be a LLL full court press and they are very good at hiding their true agenda and actual politics. The sheeple will go the wrong way.

#10  I was watching the news tonight and it featured what looked like a debate between 2 of my favorites, Howard Dean and Nader. My only thought was that I hoped the organizers passed out free ice picks at the door so people could stick themselves in the eyes for relief.

#9  I live in Marin. Totally freakin nuts up here. The inmates run the asylum and most of them still have a boner (metaphorical...they are just old tired lefties) from their Vietnam anti-war protest days. Just can't get over it.

#8  He's been on a lot of radio shows lately. He's flogging his book...when his book tour is over I expect he'll fold his tents just in time for the election.

#5  I think that Schwarzenegger puts California in play for the first time in a good many years. Bush may not win here, but Kerry will have to work hard to prevent it.

#4  FLAME A VOTE FOR BUSH WOULD NOT BE WASTED HERE! Wait things are swinging the other way in the golden state. If watergate happened today it would be a 72-hour story and not lead to impeachment.

Hmmmm. I thought the "Democrat" Party HAD become the Communist Party of the United Socialist States of Amerika. Pitchforks and long knives, the time is coming.

#2  Hell since California will go for Kerry/Edwards I am voting for old Ralph instead of the LP like I usually do. Thats a vote against Kerry a vote for Bush would be wasted here.

#1  Oops - meant to put this on page 2. Leave it here if you like or move it if appropriate.

Funny to see "Watergate" being bandied about against Democrat electoral chicanery. Then again, thats what you get when you have lawyers running the political party.
