I'm still having a problem with this Kerry fellow

Sun May 09, 2004 at 01:37:16 PM PDT

Let me begin by saying, before you flame me, I'm voting for Kerry, because out of all my choices, his is the only logical one left.  Having said that, for the past year now, I just cant seem to bring myself to like, or even respect, this guy. He seems to equivocate on everything, and his first reaction to almost every problem is "what is the best poitical solution"  Now with this abuse scandal, he should be out in front offering us something... ANYTHING, but he remains tense, Senatorial, aloof.  I look at his voting record, and I dont see the progressive list that is so often touted as proof of his credentials, I see the political votes of a man from Massachusettes. I think if he were from Texas or Idaho, he'd be as conservative as Jesse Helmes if I got him re-elected.  I would never vote for Bush, and I hate Nader. I cant in good conscience leave the top slot blank, not in as important a year as this one, and not in a Battleground state... Wisconsin.  All of you who proclaimed he was the best choice, explain this to me, a former Dean and Edwards man, because I feel that these two, or Clark, would be railing on Bush and have a solid lead.  I mean, if we lose this one, then we have to do some looking at the media and the primary system, cause both are failing us if we come up with this "douchebagbutimvotingforhimanyway" BS ever again.

There, Ive vented, please feel free to vent as well.
