73. And what if I do not now feel that by voting this world will be better?
And yes, many compromises have been required to keep the ABB position.

Up to now I have felt that most of the things with which I do not agree in Kerry's platform have only been put there to get the swing voters. I have been keeping a hope alive in my heart that these issues will not be supported once he is in office. But now I do not see how Kerry will change anything substantially from what is currently happening.

For me the hope is now gone.

I will work on a local level but when November comes the Presidential slot will remain blank on my ballot. I will keep watching the process up until then hoping that something Kerry does will bring me back to the ABB stance and I will fulfill my promise of driving people to the polls. But my time, money and vote will only go for my local Dems.
