| Why I feel Kerry will win |
|
Edited on Tue Sep-14-04 12:59 PM by drdigi420
This is my own personal list and is open to debate
1. Most, if not all, the states that went for Gore in 2000 should go for Kerry this time.
2. The war in Iraq has motivated a lot of people that didn't turn out to vote in 2000 to make sure they are at the polls in 2004.
3. The disenfranchisement of black voters in Florida and elsewhere have motivated MANY black people that didn't turn out in 2000 to vote this year.
4. Fear fatigue. More and more people are just getting tired of being afraid and are looking for a more positive message and direction for the country.
5. People are buying the really cool t-shirts, buttons, and bumperstickers that get the point across to the undecided sheeple like I have linked to below.
Let's stay vigilant, but stay positive. We CAN re-defeat Bush this November.

| 1. Plenty of people here in MS are pissed at Bush |

Plus, all of my non-voting hippie friends are actually going to vote this time around.
The polls don't include all those people that registered to vote this year. According to the right-wing shills at Newsmax democrats are outregistering repubs 2 to 1.
As I have said a million+1 times if we get a fair election we win in a landslide, have you called your senators today?
