Mark, you know from prior conversations that I'm not enamored with Kerry and I'd hope, from the intelligent discourse you've put forth, that you're not enamored with Bush. I'm sure we're going to push different buttons on election day but somehow I doubt we're too far apart. Sure Kerry's flopped but so has Bush and his flops have cost us big. Nearly everything he's embarked on has been an abysmal failure (with the exception of early stuff in Afghanistan) so I just have to feel he must be fired. Someone has to pay for this crap Mark and if it takes Kerry to be the alternative, so be it. He would have to become a child molestor for me to change my mind at this point.

I have this feeling Kerry's gonna kick his ass in the debates and all this will be moot but the "collective wisdom" of the American voters can never be discounted or predicted.

I'd just truly like to hear you say some balanced stuff about Bush devoid of the fear that saying it would imply support for Kerry. Your credibility would improve greatly. Do you fear the wrath of the neo-cons that much?
