Here is the email I just sent to the email address listed above:

I voted for Al Gore in 2000. I am voting for President Bush this year.
I get a little annoyed when I see article after article about people who have voted for Bush in 2000, but are now voting for Kerry, but no mention of the opposite side of that equation. Al Gore got alot of votes from Union Households and Southerners and I think that Kerry is going to lose many of these voters. I personally didn't switch to "Pro-Bush" until the run-up to the Iraq war, when I noticed that the democratic party started "Bush-Bashing" and playing politics with homeland security and Iraq shortly before the November 2002 elections.
That election was the first time I voted Republican. It was also the first time voting republican for many in the South(especially Georgia) and Union households(Especially in the Industrial Midwest).
Since then, the Bush-bashing has just gotten worse and worse, and I no longer see the Mainstream media(ABCnews included) as unbiased. I think that the Democratic Party has become more "Elitist" over the last few years, increasingly representing hollywood and left-wing urbanites, as opposed to working families. John Kerry is the perfect poster-child for the new "Elitist" Democratic Party that I no longer will vote for.

I am so glad I am not the only gore fool here ;)

Hey, we all make mistakes, both hubby and I voted for gore, and just like Dennis Miller, after 9/11 we both changed...

(hence my name, I have come back into the fold of the Republican party)

I sent a short, rude email to abc myself
