Ralph's pretty funny--and more often than people who make a point of ignoring him realize. I think that coming from a partisan place and looking for any excuse to insult Ralph on any possible quality leads you to pieces like these which only undermine your credibility. I'm supporting his candidacy, but can't someone like you, who feels Ralph is making a huge mistake, allow for the possibility of someone who makes huge mistakes in electoral tactics who none-the-less occasionally gets off a good joke?

Actually, Ralph Nader will have the last laugh in 2012.

Clearly Ralph Nader's attempts at humor are so rare they qualify as newsworthy events. Blogworthy, anyway.

Wasn't it this blog that reported he had earlier acquired a sense of humor while chastising the WaPo Editorial Board for not covering his campaign? The board told him it was because he had no chance of winning. He responded: Well, you cover the Nationals.
