I might have been a confused Republican PRIOR to the Kerry "nomination". No longer. Kerry is more liberal than Ted Kennedy. After the cold war, the defense budget was cut 1 Billion.
HE wanted to cut 1 Billion more for the next 5 years. Even Ted voted against that. In the congressional records, Hannity was ready quotes from within his own party that stated it was too dangerous. He is STILL of that mindset-well today anyway.
So though I did have concerns over many issues, considering the alternative, there is no choice for me.
As far as Bush swinging farther and farther right-
I think many are underestimating the pulse of the nation. There is a "lost" feeling this year. Many conservatives are struggling with issues as are the Dems. Just reading the paper and listening to ANY news will tell you very few in mainstream America are happy
with either of these two men.
