I think you are way of base, personally. I think it will be the exact opposite. Oh well, guess we will all see in November.

so you think the Clinton moderates will be willing to vote for the #1 most liberal Senator ?
as you say, we'll know in < 30 days

i also think it is interesting that very few Senators have been elected President, where state Govenors have been very successful, especially in the 20th century at reaching the White House


I think the people most wrapped up in the whole how liberal Kerry is deal are conservatives, not moderates. Most people don't fit into neat little labels.

:)

so the plan isn't to talk about Kerry's voting record in the senate so that these moderates don't know what Kerry stands for. gee i wonder if the Kerry campaign has thought of that ;)

I didn't say anything about not discussing his voting record. I just said the people who are most worried about "how liberal" he is, are not moderates.

i dunno, why didn't dukakis win?

maybe it is a red herring , but i think there are a lot of people in "fly over" country (as the media likes to call it) that don't think much of super rich northeastern politicians

anyway, i think the polls are showing a very tiny/shrinking "independent" or "undecided" vote this time , which is on what i base my opinion that the election will not be as close as last time. whether K or B wins, i am very sure it won't be a single state that decides the election

i think we'll know before midnight on Nov. 2 :clock:

I doubt I'll vote.

1) Thanks to our Electoral College, my vote will not count
2) My State, Arizona, will vote Bush.
3) Neither of the two primary candidates are 'good' candidates and a vote for anyone else is a waste of time (Electoral College)

I don't really give a crap who you "would" vote for if you're not going to influence the outcome of the election.

Hey how about the fact that not putting that up throw's the poll off. Just because I am not going to be a legal adult for another 6 months doesnt mean my opnion doesnt matter. Attitudes like this is what will get you put in a fvcking home later on.

I'm also probably voting for kerry in hopes of splitting congress and the executive branch. Voted third party last time. Registered as independent/no party.

In the interests of the outcome of this election, your opinion does in fact not matter as it will not sway the results of this election since you are not a legally registered voter.

my 18th birthday was too close to the election for me to register for an absentee ballot, so I didn't vote in 2000. if I'd been able to, though, I would have voted for Bush.

I'm going to vote for him in November, but it's despite the fact that I disagree with him on almost every major issue. I just think that 4 more years of Bush will, in the long run, be better for liberals than a 1-term president.

Fine I will just say I voted for bush before and I am voting for kerry now since there is no way to express my opnion in the poll therefor throwing it off.

The poll is for VOTERS. There is a perfectly valid choice in the poll for you. It says "I'm too young to vote, or anything not covered above."

And the current status of the poll is:
46% Kerry
34% Bush
20% Other/Undecided/Not Voting
