What do you say to friends who don't like either candidate
Advertisements [?]
I have four friends - FOUR!! - who don't like Bush but Kerry leaves them cold. Personally, I think they just haven't seen enough of Kerry, but that doesn't help. What I need is a great argument - better yet, a great article or op-ed piece - that goes further than just arguing against Bush. My argument that all three branches of federal government should not be controlled by one party works pretty well, and the specter of Bush being able to nominate two or three Supreme Court and many other federal judge nominations does resonate, but I haven't made any real inroads yet.
I figure there are tons of people out there who feel the same way as my friends -- what is the best way to convince them that Kerry is the only way to go?

I am afraid such people will either note vote, or much worse, vote for Bush.
