To Nader Voters:

[Morrissey the 23rd]

See the above note.

Ralph's own party, the Green Party, would not endorse his run this year. That's because those of us who want to build a third party in this country know that the only way to do this is to build bridges with those who believe in the issues Nader believes in. But not one of those people will sacrifice the chance to remove George W. Bush from the White House on Tuesday. The choice here is clear: do we join with our friends, or do we piss on them?

After the debacle of 2000, the Democrats got smart and abandoned the conservative wing of their party. That's why 8 of the 9 Democrats in the primaries this year were from the liberal wing. Ralph should take credit for that and declare victory. It's so sad that he doesn't realize the good he's accomplished. But for reasons only known to him, he's more angry at the Democrats than he is at Bush. He has lost his compass. I worry he has lost his mind. But he still gives a great speech!

And Lila Lipscomb, the mother from Flint who lost her son in Iraq, she still grieves -- as do the mothers of 1,120 others (not to mention the mothers of the 100,000 Iraqis who have died because of Bush's war). That's what this election is about. Not Ralph proving some point. Almost none of us on his 2000 advisory group are supporting him this year. His total lack of respect for his best friends should tell all of you something about what he really thinks of you, too.

It's never wrong to vote your heart.

The Libertarian Party is "stealing" votes from Bush, however I don't see thuggery and lawyers being used by the GOP to deprvie people of that choice.

If someone believes voting for Nader is right, well, it's never wrong to do the right thing. I don't happen to believe in Nader's socialism and nanny-state agenda, however I do wholeheartily support his efforts to make America's democracy more open to third party candidates. If I did support Ralph Nader's ideology, I would be so offended by the anti-democratic tactics of the Kerry campaign that that would ne the straq that broke the camel's back and I would vote on principle for Nader.

But then, the left-wing is full of people who are not as indendant-minded, and they let themselves get bullied around by their left-wing "comrades."

It's is wiser to vote with your head in a 2 party election

Yesh, 23rd, M. Moore is exactly on the mark. Wish YOU could come out here to help us get Kerry in! You'd be a great spokesperson. Anyway, as soon as I get sufficient sleep, since it IS 6AM in California and I have not slept a wink, I am going down to the polls and vote for Kerry. Please send some good thoughts our way, for the Democrats. We'd appreciate it. I am going to be on the edge of my seat tonight biting my nails with suspense. In 2000, when there was that *well known* screw up in Florida, and Jeb helped get W in office, I made many obscene phone calls to the Nader camp here in San Diego, on their answering machine. It was a bereft night.

I support Nader but will not let my heart rule my head. Kerry will get my vote.
