Nader voters: Get over it.

Nader voters need to get over it. If they're such selfless hippies, they need to start being selfless. Do you like Nader and what he stands for? That's nice. Now tell me what he stands for. Tell me what he stands for that is so important that you'd rather have George W. Bush re-elected than vote for Kerry. The whole charade from 2000 about the two candidates and the two parties being clones of one another has been proven to be factually, intellectually and morally bankrupt. Over toAMERICAblog:
Message to Nader voters, if you don't give a damn about the Supreme Court, about women's rights, about gay Americans, about abortion staying legal, about the environment, about an upcoming draft and more, then you just keep on deluding yourselves that by voting for Nader you're not helping re-elect George Bush. The truth hurts folks, but you're absolute idiots if you think you're not helping re-elect Bush - per se if you voted for Kerry you'd be upping his odds to get rid of Bush. But again, if you think most of what the left in this country holds dear is absolutely irrelevant and expendable - hell, that everything Ralph Nader holds dear is expendable - then vote away for Nader. You know he going to lose - the only question is whether he again takes the rest of us down with him. Honestly, I have no more use for you people. If it takes an intervention to slap you out of your deluded sense that every vote DOESN'T count (which is exactly what you're arguing, that somehow by not voting for Kerry you're not influencing the election against him), then slap in the face it will be.
