1. Fired up to preserve the status quo!
At least, that's the line that was fed to us in 2004. When people stood in line for hours in Ohio in lousy weather, the major media concluded that it was because they were so enamored with the firm hand of George W. Bush at the helm of the American ship of state. Which is why Ohio narrowly went for Bush, providing him with the margin of electoral vote victory.

And of course, the first person that USA Today can find to interview about being fired up is . . . a 28-year-old Republican attorney, who is voting for John McCain. Yeah, that'll change everything!
