Republicans voting for Edwards and Dean in WI? |
|
Kerry had the Dem/liberal vote by a solid margin. The republicans were voting for Edwards and/or Dean. What does this mean?

1. Repugs fear Kerry the most and they should. |
|
Kerry will get the veterans vote and give Bush a run for the Military vote. Also, Kerry has great credibility on foreign policy too!

3. It means Kerry's the most liberal candidate left |
|
and Kucinich's meager showing gives me concern for the viability of Kerry as a liberal. Edwards has proven himself to be a formidable centrist/moderate candidate.

6. Maybe they want balanced budgets and no stupid wars |
|
Geeze, what's up with them???????
I can't understand it.
/sarcasm
Seriously though, we must run off any republicans or independents who might want to vote for our nominee. Really,

8. I know a few republicans who would be glad to be rid of Smirk |
|
but wouldn't vote for Kerry.
Who knows the motivation of the voters described in this thread. All I'm saying is that its silly to assume that all republicans like and will vote for Smirk.

I know plenty of moderate people (who don't affilliate themselves w/ a political party) who would vote for Edwards over Bush, but do not necessarily know about Kerry. That probably has something to do with the fact that I live in TX which is more moderate.
