While Democratic frontrunners Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton try to downplay the entry of Ralph Nader into the presidential race, in truth it seems they're more than concerned about his decision.
Hillary Clinton reminded people in an interview that she believes he cost Al Gore the presidential race in 2000.
Nader responded saying on Sunday "he’s not the reason Gore lost the election and blamed everything from voter fraud in Miami to the Supreme Court. In any case, he said, that’s no reason why he shouldn’t run."

Democrat vote fears as Nader runs again
Ralph Nader formally announced yesterday that he is to make his fifth run for the White House, renewing fears that he might again take votes from the Democrats in a tight race.
The consumer champion, who will turn 74 this week, rejected suggestions that he would damage the prospects of the Democratic candidate. "If the Democrats can't landslide the Republicans this year, they ought to just wrap up, close down, emerge in a different form," he said.
