I kept seeing the thread "Republicans for Kerry" and thought I'd see if there was an opposite site.
Democrats for Bush This is the Comments page, the homepage is
www.Democrats4Bush.com.
As a former Democrat, here's one comment (of many) that I found interesting:
"As a Democrat from the great state of Ohio, I can tell you that many midwestern Democrats like myself feel very alienated from our party right now. I supported Joe Lieberman in the primaries, but was appalled by the way our party's left wing turned on the one Democrat whose record on counter-terrorism was as strong as the president's. The Michael Moore / Howard Dean crowd knows so little about the middle America they are forever shedding aligator tears for.
Let me make clear: I am no Zell Miller, a Democrat in name only. Rather, like Mayor Ed Koch, many of my political beliefs are inconsistent with President Bush's or the G.O.P. platform. As a former social worker and future bankruptcy attorney, I yearn for the kind of social justice that most Republicans scoff at.
Yet I must admit that Bush is the only candidate fit to lead this country right now. I urge all liberal Democrats to consider Israel's history of dealing with terrorists. From this history, there can be only one lesson --- the future of freedom depends not just on counter-terrorism, but on taking this fight to the countries that nurture terror, including Iraq.
As a final note, let me add that Bush's record on health care and education is virtually liberal. The prescription drug plan and the "No Child Left Behind Act" were just the sorts of bills that President Clinton would have loved to pass, but could not. Bush's "big government" conservatism should win over the kind of "guns and butter" liberals one finds in the midwest and the south (not to mention the Catholic neighborhoods of the east coast). Who knows... the Republican party of the future may be one that is socially conservative and economically liberal. If so, count this Democrat in!"
