I hate Bush, too, but that doesn't make me attack Nader/Camejo and
support Kerry/Edwards, even though I've organized and participated in
more anti-Bush protests than liberals.  In fact, while my comrades
and I were doing all we could to build up opposition to the war on
Afghanistan, many of the ABN liberals were either pro-war or AWOL.
If more had opposed the war on Afghanistan, Bush wouldn't have been
able to parlay the 9/11 momentum into the invasion of Iraq so easily.

Liberals of the Anybody But Nader gang prefer Kerry to Bush, but they
are only implacably opposed to Nader, not to Bush.  They will live
comfortably with Bush for four more years if Bush gets elected.  What
they can't tolerate is that anyone as well known as Nader is running
without ruling-class permission.
