It's a hokey term, but it's true. I am a die-hard Bush fan, but have a teacher friend who NEVER votes Republican. Guess what? She is voting for President Bush. The issue that turned her? Yep, terrorism. She is an expectant mom and knows that nothing is more important than our national security (plus she thinks Kerry is a weasel). My friend is smart enough to know that the economy, education, etc all depend upon our country being safer, and she doesn't think Kerry can do the job.

Here is the letter that I sent to Brit Hume at Fox:
I thought you might want to know where Security Moms are and who they are - www.moms4bush.com and www.gowisp04.org. These groups are reaching out to women who are passionate about protecting their families and keeping terrorists away from our buildings, our schools, our homes. We feel very strongly in the leadership shown by President Bush. He has not faltered or wavered on his position about taking the fight to them, so that we can feel safe again in America. Women may differ on many issues facing our country domestically; however, one issue on which we are absolutely undivided is that we never again want to experience the horror of September 11, 2001. The feeling that we all experienced three years ago when our only focus that morning was to get to our children, and be with our families. We did not know what kind of an attack we were under, but we knew that we had to be with our families and if there was a further threat, to protect our children.
We feel confident that George W. Bush will continue to lead our Military decisively and honorably. We also know in our deepest inner gut that John Kerry will only demoralize the military, appease the terrorists, compromise our national security and put our country and our freedoms at great risk.
We are Security Moms. We do exist and we fiercely support the President and his mission to protect us and our families.
Sincerely,
