>>Question for all: Why do these morons think that because someone has a cell phone, they're automatically a RAT/Kerry supporter?<<

We're talking about people with cell phones only, and no Land lines. The question is why would someone have no Land line? Bad credit, illegal residency status, transience, etc. The funny thing is though I do have several Republican friends with no Land line.

Married with children (the Bush demo) has a land line.

Answer #1 - COST.
Especially if you're unlucky enough to live where that &^%^& SBC has bought out your local phone company.

Answer #2 - COST
I used to work with a lady that had an out of control teenage daughter. Her Land line phone bill was running $400 a month. Her kid was involved with some bad people, wound up being arrested, etc. and kept accepting collect calls from her black 'boyfriend' who was in PRISON. Her and her hubby finally canceled the land line (SBC) and went with a multiple Cell Phone package saving a ton of money.

Answer #3 - Telemarketing
Even with the 'no call list', some telemarketing calls still come through on a land line because people don't read those little privacy statements they get from the Bank or Credit Card Co's. With a cell phone, you don't get any - for now anyway.

There's been many times when I've opened up our SBC bill and thought of canceling myself.

I only have a land line for my modem, so I don't have a phone to answer. I use my cell for business and personal matters. I'm married with children and am a staunch conservative republican.
