Turns out, few vote switchers among our readers. We asked if anyone who voted for Bush last time will vote for Kerry this time. Or if anyone who voted for Gore last time would vote for Bush this time.
Janet Suppes of Bellevue: "I voted for GWB last time, and I intend to do so again. He speaks clearly about the terrorist threat. He knows they are dangerous and want us dead. Sensitivity isn't going to stop them. He also
understands that letting people keep their money will lead to more
growth than taking it away."
Lucy Garrick of Seattle: "His leadership on the jobs and economy, education, taxes, healthcare has produced lower paying jobs, the greatest debt in history and, by accounts of public school employees, a continually declining public school system."
Winston Rockwell of Kirkland: "I voted for Bush in 2000, and will vote for him again this time. John Kerry's voting record, which he carefully has downplayed during his campaign, shows him to be a liberal of the first order, who has consistently voted to reduce U.S. security and to expand the United Nations."
Traci Mitchell of Snohomish: "President Bush and the Republicans are against "big government"? Has it ever been bigger? Lastly, my 57-year-old mother lost her manufacturing job when the market took a downturn caused by President Bush. In this economy no one seems to be hiring an MBA-educated 57-year old. She has been working temp jobs for almost 3 years now with no health insurance."
