2. Because they want four more years of Republican rule?
Who cares what that tiny group thinks?

3. Because They Vote for What They Believe In
Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 09:53 PM by BeatleBoot
And if they vote for who they believe in and as a result if
People get elected who are the polar opposite of their beliefs
Then So be it.

It's the moral equivalent to the conservatives belief of: "Fuck it, I got mine!"

4. They're so "Green"
they supported Nader because Gore - Mr. Climate Change - wasn't Green enough.

5. way up compared to what?
if they went from 500 to 1000 that would be a 100% increase. With whom do the greens have credibility any more?

6. When they get over 62 million call me.............
cause thats what it takes to be a winner at least in 2004 elections. Your wasting time when you can effect change in the Democratic Party, unless you want to give Bush a 3rd term with McCain.

7. Because of Hillary and Dennis/John were truly progressive.
If Hillary gets the nomination, Green membership will sky rocket even more.
