Maybe those crappy poll results...
Edited on Sun Oct-17-04 08:24 PM by Canadian_moderate
will ensure a higher turn-out for the anti-Bush voters.

I really hope Americans will make amends.

I personally think that Kerry is not an ideal candidate, but he's obviously the only option for anyone who hates what GWB has done. My wife's vote for Kerry/Edwards is in the mail.

2. Maybe those "crappy poll results" were cooked because the...
...polling outfits are owned by corporations backing the NeoCons. Do you think that's possible, or do you tend to believe everything you see and hear?

The majority of Americans voted for Gore...if anyone should make amends, it should be the very small minority of goose-steppers that got us all into this mess.

I also don't care what you think of Kerry because you don't vote in this country, do you? If you had done even a minimum of homework on the Kerry, you would realize that he's an excellent candidate.

4. You may not think I'm relavent

but I did convince my wife to vote by absentee ballot. She also felt that Kerry was a weak candidate and wasn't going to bother vating by absentee ballot. I convinced her of the importance of every vote against GWB.

I've done lots of research on Kerry, I followed much of the primaries and I watched him in 2 of the 3 debates. I still think he's weak. Given the mess GWB has created, it astounding to see that GWB even has a chance in this election.

I love the USA, but I cannot fathom how so many Americans support Bush. I'm sorry, but it's a very sad reflection of your fellow American citizens.

6. Most of the polls they rhymed off on CNN today
showed GWB with a lead. I can't believe so many Americans would vote for that idiot. He's a disgrace to all progressive and liberal-minded Americans. Unfortunately, you may be in the minority. What a shame!

Good luck, but I'm preparing myself for the worst case scenario. I really hope the anti-Bush/Kerry voters come through. It's not even my country (my wife is american) and this election campaign is killing me. I don't know how you guys deal with this shit every 4 years. Our elections are normally over within 5-6 weeks.
