artbrooks, I'm not disputing the historical facts. What I'm saying is, nearly exactly half of all the voters in 2000 voted for Bush.
Or are the "Anybody But Bush" supporters suggesting we ignore that fact, shut up and vote for Kerry without debating issues, strategies, or tactics, and hope for the best?

With half the voters in 2000 voting against the Democrats, I'm not willing to just shut up and vote for the Democrat. Without debate, without discussion, without vetting the issues, Kerry stands a very good chance of losing, due to the arrogance and presumptions of the "Anybody But Bush" fanatics.
