Did Clinton voters vote Kerry...???
In my world...I was suprised by a few guys, who, as far as I could tell, just DIDN'T LIKE John Kerry. It was kind of shocking. One guy who comes over to smoke sometimes - he voted Clinton...but he hated Kerry. This was EARLY on in the election...like May. Another hippie rebel WVA man - voted Bush...he didn't like Kerry either. Nothing poliitcal...they just didn't like the man.

Is it possible that many Clinton voters abandoned Kerry?

4. I heard that so often
"I don't like Bush, but Kerry is scary."

Scarier than Bush?!?

5. I know at least ten previous bush voters who voted Kerry
I also know of bush voters that didn't vote at all because they found Bush to be so repugnant and moronic.

I know pro-life people who voted for Kerry.

I know gun enthusiasts who voted for Kerry.

I still maintain there is no way this thing wasn't rigged!

7. Pro-Life and Pro-Kerry
Someone who started a Students for Kerry organization was Pro-Life and I counted at least 5 pro-life license plates in Tallahasse on cars with Kerry stickers.

9. One *gun nut* I knew from work
Found bush so detestable that he said he didn't care what the Democrats did in the gun arena...he was voting for Kerry.

I mean people like that were bailing on Bush and yet he supposedly picked up the popular vote?

I find that very difficult to believe (if not impossible!)

6. Just shows, once again.. that FOX NEWS needs to be neutered...
These people are forming their opinion on Kerry based upon the NUMBER ONE rated news channel... FOX. They think they're getting in-depth analysis, but they're getting right wing brainwashing. There was really no reason to 'not like' Kerry, really. Based on what? Who he is? Or who the talking heads SAID he was? Until we get a handle on the media again, we're going to get smacked down every time..
