My Republican 'Christian' brother may likely vote for Kerry!
He asked me if I was surprised, and I said, 'not really, I always knew your were an intelligent person.'
He said he now gets into discussions with Bush supporting friends and maintains that if Bush were a CEO he would be fired for complete incompetence.

3. figure out everything that went into his thought process
then use those arguments on other Repubs/moderates you know, or get him to do it.

Good work !

6. the 'failed CEO ' argument seems to resonate
with some Republicans. I hope he has changed some minds in his discussions.

5. The incompetence should be a big issue.
I'm surprised more is not made of it. Bush never really succeeded as a businessman, and now he's essentially digging the country into a hole both in fiscal issues and in foreign policy and security issues. Bush often proclaims that he's against leaving problems for the next generation to clean up, yet that's PRECISELY what he's doing now.

I'm glad your brother has taken that to heart.
