If Bush and Kerry had an election tomorrow who would you vote for? Would you change your vote from the original? Kerry for me

As poor a job as I think W has done pushing an agenda, I don't see how it's possible to change your vote when you have two candidates with such a stark contrast in policy positions.

I'm sticking with W over both Kerry and Gore - shows just how bad the last 2 dem candidates were.

Agreed. I believe Lewis Black had a quote something along the lines of (I'm cleaning it up for the internet):

Republican: "I have a terrible idea!"
Democrat: "I can make it even worse!"

How bad is the democratic party when they can't find anybody that could beat Dubya in an election? I'm merely a sales associate at a major electronics retail chain, and I could have sold the American public on Robin Williams for president better than the Dems sold Kerry.

What's scary is that northeast liberal idiot almost came away with 50% of the vote.

I'd like to think Kerry didn't market well to get that high but voting for Bush required a deep swallow, tug of the collar, and a deep breath by many.

Pretty much. I don't know who I would have voted for if I was eligible to vote at the time... Probably Bush. I'm sick of this "Lesser of two evils" crap, though. What ever happened to the days when propaganda in this country was good enough to actually get people behind a presidential candidate?

I'm convinced that those "Good Ole Days" never actually existed. We've always done it this way to some degree.

Well, if we had to do it all over again, we'd still vote W. We wouldn't have today's info back then. "Back to the Future" was just a movie. I must admit however, in voting for W then, he came accross as a good choice all around. Didn't show his spontaneous hardhead idiot intentions first time around. Unfortunately, with who's on the trail now, he'd still be a front runner. Who are those 50 idiots in Democratic bubble gum debates on TV anyway, and what are they saying. Canada looks real good.

I never say anything negative about people who voted for Bush because they voted the way they felt, its just now he makes it look like it was a bad idea to vote for him IMO.

I admired his moxy to stand up and say he believed in God and so forth and didn't back down or alter his stance on that amid today's PC crap and anti-religion crap. Being religious, that attracted me. Not, because he was so to speak, but because he proclaimed it and stood behind it. That is usually political death. And he spoke a good game to boot. He has been disappointing. If he had concentrated his tenacity for the war instead upon the state of the country...

It's all a crap shoot anyway. Dem, Rep. It doesn't matter. The prez is a jerk chain anyway. Want to change things...start getting the career idiots voted out or change policy on their terms. I'm against lifers. I'm interested in the intent of the forefathers that designed it to be a civic duty and every citizen serves their term.

I voted for Kerry the first time and would do it again. All this "we would be even worse off with Kerry" BS has to make a man wonder how in the world educated people could actually vote for Bush. He is such an embarrassment to the US. Anyone see his press conference last Thursday? If you did, then you know we really messed up electing this guy as president. And to think he won twice. Just shows as smart as some people are, they can be really stupid on election day

Bull! No way he would be the front runner. He never came across to me as a good choice all around. He is an idiot. I am a Christian, but for whatever reason, it doesn't impress upon me when a man "proclaims" his beliefs. They are no one's business but his own. I will never base my vote on a man's religion. It will get you in trouble. You think Bush is a better Christian than Kerry? Just because of some liberal movements, it has become a belief of many right wing bible thumpers that Democrats aren't as big as believers as the far right. It is a product of ignorance and nothing else.

Then you are a Christian without conviction. The fact that your language in labeling me preceeding your claim you are a chrisitian negates any parallels to objectivity.

I never said I based my vote on his religion. I said it impressed me of his apprent and open conviction that normally spells political suicide with people of your sort.

Never said he was a better christian than Kerry.

Those liberal movements that a majority of Dems, or anyone else, support and promote are in direct defiance of the same christian principles and biblical teachings they "believe" in. And I'm not even a right wing thumper.

Every person is charged to make their on choice, but a muslim educated as a youth in schools supporting and promoting radical teaching, posing as a Methodist convert for political normalcy will not my vote acquire. If you would vote Obama and put a person in charge of this country waiting to have his martyrdom called out, then you are the same as you have accused me.

The real conspiracy is a bunch of people claiming christianity and allowing christianity to be wiped out by liberals in governement not wanting to offend those wishing to offend. where is my equality in that. The real conspiracy is claiming to be religious, yet saying it's OK to kill unborn children. Of which, the same God they say they believe in has said he knew them before they were in their mothers wound, somehow plays second fiddle to their opinion an unborn child is lifeless. The real conspiracy is idots like you wanting to call idiots like me idiots because my opinion differed from yours and I'm an idiot for not being your kind of idiot.

No but If religion plays a big role or important role in people's life I see why they would vote for him. If thats how they feel they should. I voted for Kerry and got to see John Edwards speak.
