The people who drive plug in cars as well never seem to realize that the vast majority of our electrical generation comes from fossil fuels.
Do they not realize it, or do they realize that power plants are more efficient at converting fossil fuels into usable power than engines are?

Also, electric vehicles don't care how the electricity was generated, so it could be hydro, solar, nuclear, whatever. Electric cars are a necessary first step to long-term energy independence.
