I read something recently that said there were ~45,000 New Yorkers registered in both NY and Florida. Anybody else see the article?

My mistake...there are 46,000 New Yorkers registered in Florida...in a 6:1 Democrat:Republican ratio! Let's hope somebody cross references the voting rolls this year.

The seniors are being targeted by Kerry with lies about the Medicare premium increase -- 17 per cent, which accompanies the increased coverage, and was passed by the Congress, not dictated by the President. I don't believe most will fall for it.

Seniors used to be heavily WWII vets. Those numbers are fading as WWII veterans pass away. We're seeing a greater percentage (due to such attrition) of Korean War veterans, who don't necessarily harbor warm thoughts for Harry Truman's political party, even though they may remember him fondly. WWII vets served under FDR (for the most part). By 2011 the Baby Boomers born in 1946 (conceived in 1945; the peak year was 1953 if memory serves) will start to hit 65, with the biggest surge circa 2018. That's the Vietnam generation.

George W. Bush will be reelected by a margin of at least ten per cent
