He definitely wasn't my first choice during the democratic primary. But I've definitely warmed up to him as time has gone along. I realized that most of his negative image has come out of Bush's smear tactics, and I also realize that NO SENATOR's voting record is particularly good, especially ones that have been there awhile. It's the way the game is played, so I find it rather unfair to accuse John Kerry of what 99.9% of the Senate engages in. I respect him for his anti-war movement after Vietnam and his good taste in marrying a woman from Pittsburgh ;) While I still have my reservations, I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt and support him until he screws things up like the current ass we have running the country. Somehow, I doubt this is possible.</p> Very well put! While I, like you, am no economics major, I did benefit from a few econ classes at ND.
