70. Yes -
(1)my youngest sister - only b/c "Kerry is a flip flopper" and she won't allow any discussion beyond that because it seems to physically hurt her ears - "Don't talk about it!" (2) her husband - ex military from Texas who continues to rant about Ghaddafi and how Clinton drew down the intelligence and that caused 9/11 - need I say more? (3) My "born-again" fundamentalist Catholic aunt who wrote to me "O please my dear niece don't destroy my faith in my president!" and then when visiting my family and me, refused to go out with us if I went since I worked on Kerry campaign and dared to talk about it (4)a friend on the net/mutual hobby (ex-military, anger-management-challenged) because something to the effect of "we need some hard ass mutha f*es in there right now." (5)husband of girlfriend from hicksville NH - thinks Dems strip people of rights like enforcing helmut laws for motorcycles and seatbeat laws (to which I responded well race car drivers get strapped in and so do astronauts~) and also blames Clinton for 9/11 (6)family friend at Christmas party - "I'm sick of the people on welfare."

All of the above I believe were included in the 59K Daily Mirror tally. I'm sorry but ignorance goes a long way towards making very bad choices. States in which the above live? Massachusetts, Florida, New Hampshire and Michigan.
