Answer this question TJ, if the dem nominee was a rock would you vote for him before you would a republican or an independent?
see, there go your knee-jerk assumptions again. i'm a libertarian, not a liberal. on the day that dubya announced that he wanted a constitutional amendment to codify discrimination against gay and lesbian folks, i sent $2k to each of: kerry, edwards, moveon.org.
As far as college students go it sure is strange that once they get in the real world and start having to pay taxes and see what everything is really like they often change their view of the dem party. They no longer want to earn $3 and give $2 away to someone else.
hey, now i had "not insignificant" gains in the market over the last couple years. and except for gold miners, the majority from being short. and i paid taxes. and bush's tax cuts didn't help me one bit. they helped someone, but not me.
yet: i don't mind paying taxes, as long as i get something for my money. but cronyism and a big old wasteful war is not it. lost lives aside, that's my money being spent. defense, yes; but billions to unseat a petty dictator and unsettling an entire region, that's not defensive.
