Tough question. Although I consider myself a Republican, and voted Bush last time, 'm disappointed in Bush invading Iraq. Can't vote for him again. If the election was today and those were the only two choices, I guess I'd have to vote Kerry. But I'm not enamored by Kerry either. This may be a good year to vote third party.

Interesting. Thus far, 75% of respondents called themselves Conservative or Slightly Conservative. Yet, fe votes for Bush on here thus far.

I am more voting against Kerry more than voting for Bush. Bush could have done better in these last 3 1/2 years, but Kerry is the poster child for socialism.

NONE OF THE ABOVE

May we please have some real candidates. I am tired of leftovers.
It looks like voting this year will be as effective as rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. glug, glug, glug... Sad

I have nothing against Nader for Secretary of the Interior or Energy, but not President. The whole foreign Policy thing is a major mess. Even with the best advisors to back him I just don't believe that he is the man for the job.

George W. Bush, unless somebody else shows up with a provably better shot at preventing Kerry or H. Clinton or whoever the ultimate demmunist candidate is from winning.

It's not at all obvious to me that the dems are going to actually let the gigolo run for president. I mean, with all the grief George has had to absorb over the last two months, if the gigolo isn't up 30 points at this point, it's hard to see how he can win.

I'm assuming also that the Clinton blackops machine hasn't torpedoed all the real candidates for Kerry's benefit. Kerry is basically just a placeholder, to be knocked aside at the convention if H. Clinton figures she has any shot at all, and allowed to run only if she doesn't.

The demmunist candidate is probably going to be Hillary Clinton and not the gigolo.

I beg you guys, please vote Kerry in.
You can slap his face after the next four years by voting a third party candidate or having someone remove your anti-democratic first-past-the-post system (is my vocab right here? that expression sounds pretty weird to me).
But with Bush in office for another four years - what's going to happen to our planet and your country?
Try to remember the Patriot Act and crap like that when going to the polls.

Here here, hamster. Even if you don't like Kerry, think of him as an interim solution. Bush has to go.

tony2481 - Well said. I can't stand Bush, but I can't stand Kerry more. Now matter how Bush has screwed up, (and I think that he has) the only way we can contain terrorism is if the terrorists know that there will be serious ramifications, if they attempt to pull a 9/11 again. I certainly don't want the US being attacked again and again while Kerry waits to see what the UN will do about it!

You might want to read some of those comments from the guys who served on swiftboats in Nam:

http://www.swiftvets.com/Index2.htm

Basically, they claim that they gave the gigolo the three purple hearts to get rid of him. They say that the guy required "constant supervision", had started shooting people for fun, and was considered dangerous.

Basically, there were places for guys who LIKED to kill people in Attila the Hun's army, in Chengis Khan's army, and in Adolf Hitler's army, but not in the United States Army...

In our army, you have to know how to kill people, but they don't really want guys who enjoy it. Possibly something about this still being mainly a Christian country.

Kerry, by his voting record, is the very leftmost of all US senators. That's way past "socialism". Most people would figure that number 15 or number 16 (starting from the left) was a communist and no reasonable person could argue with that. Kerry is number one starting from the left. I mean, Karl Marx would be a moderate by contrast.
