Compared to Kerry who appeared more to be a product completely made up of marketing and hype, Bush appeared to at least have the ability to make his own decisions, be predictable on issues, show some consistant leaning on issues, etc.

The reason a lot of us voted for Bush was because Kerry was running against him. Should it have been some better qualified challenger, I don't know if we'd be into the second term.

Democrats need to not be stupid and vote for a candidate in the primary because they have "momentum" which is exactly what seemed to propel Kerry to the finish line.

Not surprising though when you consider some of them would favor a dog to a human for the office... Especially if said dog had momentum.
