Now, having lost the "left wing of the democratic party" candidate from the process, I'm almost certain that Nader will throw his consumer-friendly hat into the ring. (It has padded edges, and an airbag inside of it. Well, until he throws it, at least.) I think he would have stayed away had Dean stayed in, but he'll now argue that true liberals are no longer represented by the two major parties.
I give him two weeks to announce.

I wonder if Nader will still resonate with the 2-3% of the nationwide vote he received in 2000, or if instead those folks are still recovering from the bruises that the rest of the Democratic party gave them, and they decide that fixing the crumpled hat and broken campaign button resulting from the assault isn't worth the trouble.
(While it's an interesting question, I'd rather not find out.)
