Reply #51: No, what really troubles me is what

[liberalhistorian]

will happen if Nader actually does run and gets even one or two percent of the vote, because we simply will not survive another four years (hell, another TWO years) of the Bushistas. We won't. THAT is what troubles me, not whether the feelings of Naderites are hurt or not.

There is so much at stake, and this is such a critical election, with our country's future literally riding on the results, that I'm not concerned over being "nice", we can't afford that right now.

And I understand what you're saying about not caring what freepers think, but look at how much power the RW wingnuts have right now and how much a Bush election (not selection, like last time) will increase and solidify that power, and we need to start caring.
