7. I'll tell you why
Because most of the Naderites were latte-sipping, upper-class, sheltered, effete elitists who didn't have the LIVE with the consequences of a Bush presidency. By voting for Nader they get to feel good about themselves, and feel like they are contributing to a socially worthy cause, without having to deal with the real world implications of their actions. Many of the Naderities I knew had large trust funds waiting for them when they turned 21, the types of people who could spend a whole summer backpacking in Europe without a care in the world. They are all enjoying their Bush tax cuts now.
