I know this because I would vote for a Socialist candidate. I am not voting for Kerry.
We Liberals don't see Kerry as one of ours.
Looking good.

I don't know, I might put a check in the "Bi-Polar" box...
The "you're kidding" was meant to be sarcastic, as a reaction to "I think Kerry has [a] slightly higher name brand recognition in the market".

I've been working overseas for 12+ years. I've tried to vote absentee in every election, but so far the State of Washington has only managed to get it to work once.
In theory I should be able to vote at the Consulate in Dhahran. They're only open on alternate Wednesdays when the moon is full these days, and there's no chance my Saudi boss would let me off from work to go down even if they were open.
It looks like our Representative Democracy will have to muddle through again without my ballot.

I'm voting for President Bush, primarily because I postively can't stand either Kerry or his pickle queen wife, Teresa Heinz. As a Senator for 20+ years in Massachusetts, Kerry has done close to nothing to better the Commonwealth. Why let the man waste the next 4 years doing NOTHING for the other States of the Union?

Kerry is not particularly liberal. (I can say that because I am liberal and he is a good deal to the right of me.)
There are a considerable number of people who identify themselves as conservative who are voting for Kerry.
I'm a Conservative and I'm not voting for "blue blood Kerry".

Watch your back there buddy. Not a great place to be these days.
