Perhaps it was the opponent. I once spoke to a person that was pro-Bush, and their reasoning seemed silly to me, but had some sense to it, I guess... they said something along the lines of,

"Bush has started this war, he needs to finish it. We can't let all of our troops to have gone there in vain. He may not be the most qualified person in the world, but Kerry is not what we need right now. (Bla bla bla... Kerry is a flip-flopper). I simply can't elect someone who I don't know what he's going to do. At least with Bush I know that he's going to finish the war, and not go back and forth.

Now, I'm not legal voting age, but I still thought that Kerry would have it. In response to what the person said to me above, I replied,

"That's exactly it! Bush started this, and it was supposed to be over by now! Can't we withdraw before any more blood is shed? We're just pissing them off more by staying there and patrolling the streets... I simply cannot bear to think that these 20 year-olds are over there getting killed."

Well we might as well say it...

GO NADER!
