The fact that Ralph Nader visited Olympia and this has not been mentioned on OlyBlog does not bode well for his Presidential campaign. 

Don't get me wrong. I like third party and independent runs. Ralph even got my vote in the past, once. I'm not voting for him this time, however.

But I am interested in his 2008 campaign and what he is saying that other candidates are not.  Any OlyBloggers out there attend his Oly speech? Care to report?
