My mom hates Bush.
She doesn't think that Kerry would be a much better president. Different, yes. Better, no. Of course she thinks both sides are yo-yo's. She doesn't remember who she voted for in 2000.

2. No offense intended but how could you not remember who you voted
for? Just curious.

4. My Mom voted Bush in 2000
She is staying home this year since she doesn't like Kerry either.

9. Some people are very apathetic.
And, they hold his war vote against him. His patriot act vote too. They feel that either way, we get a rich white guy. Same shit, diffrent asshole. Some of that I can understand. It is not about Kerry personally, I think. It is cynicism. Pure and simple. Cynicism is something I have about a great many things, including politics. I put that on the back burner for politics because my future, and this country's future is in trouble.

5. Oh, please. It's impossible for anyone to NOT be a better president than
Bush. We have nowhere to go but up.

11. Exactly! NO offense against your
Mom, coloradodem..but if someone doesn't think Kerry would be better then they are not really cognizant of the ISSUES!

Great Rally in Pueblo yesterday! Kerry was ON FIRE!

:dem: KERRY HAS OUR BACK AND WE HAVE KERRY'S BACK! :dem:

6. Remind her of the people Bush has surrounded himself with
A Kerry administration would be night and day difference.

It's not just about the top man. The whole philosophy shift would be seismic.

10. My mom hates Bush too
And so does my 97-year-old grandmother, and they both ALWAYS vote Democrat. . . . This may be my grandmother's last election, but she'll be voting one way or another. . .
