    Re: who is voting for who and why

    I'm not voting for Bush, and I'm not voting for Kerry. Neither is going to be effective for turning the country around, and they are the two worst presidential candidates I have seen in the years since I have been old enough to pay attention to politics. To put it mildly... The "anybody but Bush" mentality is old and tired. It's not like Kerry is really any better.
    (just wait for the Bush/Kerry campaign posters in a couple weeks )

    I'm not voting Green either - to me they have nullified their validity as a 3rd party by vowing not to campaign in swing states because it could hurt Kerry. I thought the point of a 3rd party was to actually make a difference and affect politics, but apparently not if you are the Green party. If it could be construed that they cost the Democrats the presidential election 2 times in a row, it *might* make the Democrats wake up and pay attention to the voters they lost. But unfortunately, the Greens have jumped on the "anybody but Bush" bandwagon and have forgotten what is the point of a 3rd party. Thanks guys.

    Probably not going to vote for Nader - he has some good ideas that really *should* be slowly implemented over the next decade or two, but he is overly idealistic with his policies and out of touch with what would actually work in the economic and political world.

    What's left? Maybe I'll write somebody in....

    Beanz for president!!!!
