The SBVFT do NOT necessarily support Bush.
Many are Dems.
They just OPPOSE Kerry.
They don't care who you vote for,
or if you don't vote at all,
just don't vote for Kerry.

That may well be, but the ads and the vituperative dialog going on around them may not be a good thing for Bush. It's happened in the past, you know, that negative advertising has actually helped the candidate it was aimed at.
Again, I can't predict, but I'm more than a little concerned that this whole business may not benefit Bush in November.
You run a huge risk when you attack the military service of a candidate. A huge risk. When Bush calls his opponent's service "noble," the Swift Boat Vets may not be accomplishing what they set out to do.
I know the whole thing is very popular among Freepers, but I'm not sure it plays as well out there in the general population. So far, the whole controversy hasn't affected the polls much, one way or another. We'll see.
They don't care about the vote, Kerry or othwerwise. Listen to O'Neil, "it is personal", they want to DESTROY Kerry.
