Don't get me wrong, I hate Kerry. Its just that if I can't trust Bush to shrink government, I am not really sure why I should give my best efforts to see him elected.
To sum up your postition: You hate Kerry. You hate Bush. But you'd rather have Kerry, than Bush. If Bush is not going to get re-elected, it going to be President Kerry.
That is the bottom line.
Anyone who prefers Kerry is NO CONSERVATIVE. PERIOD.
