Maybe I'm not too old to run for President after all ...

We're both nearing 74 years of age--although his birthday is later this week and mine isn't until November ... but well, what do you think? I'm at least as good looking, I think ...

Whatever, Ralph Nader's announcement yesterday (surprise, surprise, yawn) has the Democrats running for fear into the nearest pubs and has the Republicans cheering him on. My own take is that the very worst that he can do to the Democrats is to cost them maybe 150 electoral votes and a slight [a.k.a. four-year] delay, but little more. Even Hillary doesn't see it as entirely impossible for the Democrats to win at least enough states even with Nader in the race to at least put the election into the House of Representatives now. If the Dems can hold onto the House, they will likely elect one of their own (Kucinich maybe?) to the Oval Office. Of course, my brother from Connecticut is hoping it will be a chance for Ron Paul to shock everyone.

Go, Ralph ... go!
