People who have computers at home, high-bandwidth internet service and 
technical skills are wealthier, on average, than the average person and 
are more likely to vote for a Republican.  HS kids are probably more 
likely to believe what their parents believe.  That often changes a few 
years later when they go to college and are exposed to other points of 
view.

He supports abortion *rights*.  I don't even know what it means to 
"support abortion."  The issue is *rights* and freedoms -- Kerry wants us 
to have rights and freedoms that GWB would like to take away.
