Bush went to Yale and was a member of Skull and Bones. Your blood can't get any bluer than that!! Are people falling for his fake Texas accent? (He didn't grow up in Texas.) > There are always those people out there, dare I say a lot like Mike here, > that no matter what, come hell or high water they are going to vote > democratic. I voted for a Republican once - Scott Klug in Madison, WI. His opponent seemed extremely naive. Scott did fairly well. I would vote for more Republicans but I have to have good reasons. If I don't know anything about the candidates, I usually don't vote. > To me Kerry is like Clinton, he is taking a page from the Clinton > playbook, the difference is he does not have the looks and personality > to pull it off. Well, Clinton was very good for our country, so I'd be happy to have a Clintonesque leader even if he isn't as good looking as Clinton. > With Bush you might not like his stand on things, but it is pretty > certain that he is not going to flip flop on it because popular opinion > says that he should.

Of course, the problem is that Bush will 'lead' us into things we don't want. I'll take a good follower over a bad leader any day! ;-) Mike _______________________________________________ discussion mailing list EMAIL:PROTECTED http://mlug.missouri.edu/mailman/listinfo/discussion
