Edited on Wed Jul-14-04 06:16 PM by SW FL Dem
I'm sitting in a restaurant with my son, a family is next to us, CNN is on tv, the wife makes some comment about gay marriage and I wait for the inevitable. This is an extremely repub area - it went over 70% for Shrub in 2000. The wife continues "You know I really hate George W. Bush, he is the epitome of evil". I almost dropped my fork. Her husband started to criticize her for speaking out in public. I smiled at her and said I agree with her and thanked her for making my day. We had a great conversation and my son and I left realizing that we really aren't alone, even here. Best news is that she's mid 30s, never voted, but just registered so she can vote for Kerry.

2. I wonder if this FMA thing will backfire because it's a loser? |

The more I hear stories like this, the more I'm sure that Bush is toast.

12. Exactly, polls only poll "likely voters"... |
|
I think that there are quite a few "unlikely voters" who are pissed as hell at Bush.

13. All the more reason we must be active in our election day |
|
work. We must get our vote to the polls--every one! Likely voters. Unlikely voters. Every person who is registered and doesn't want GW to be President must be dragged to the polls if needed :)
