Most Kerry nuts are too young to know better or wealthy enough not to give a shit about the tax implications of his presidency. Most Bush supporters think we're in WWIII and that the nation is embroiled in some "battle for its moral soul", whatever that means.
Those with more than basal matabolism taking place in their brains readily admit the only question this November is "Which guy will hurt me less?"

Agreed as to the loyalist, disagree somewhat as to the "stauch supporter". If by "staunch supporter", you mean someone who thinks the candidate really is the top person for the job (i.e., Bush or Kerry), than I'd tend to agree. People that dumb should be shot. On the other hand, not_dumb people can legitimately think that they are much more likely to be safe, fat and happy under one than the other, and only a stillborn crackhead wouldn't think this a valid reason to be a "staunch supporter"of the one. Its as much being a staunch opponent of the other as being a staunch supporter of the one. Hell, if anything, I'm becoming a staunch supporter of Bush become I'm a staunch supporter of myself and my own interests. I want to live.
