What is "liberal" about Kerry
supporters that trash storefronts and beat Bush supporters up? How is
their
behavior any different from that of thugs in 1935?


The reason a lot of people "support" Kerry is because he is not Bush and he
is the best shot at getting Bush out. They do not necessarily actually
support Kerry and his ideas. Another case of not voting "for" someone but
voting "against" someone else. I strongly suspect that who you call "Kerry
supporters" are in fact part of the anti-Bush crowd. I'm quite sure Kerry
would treat such hooligans pretty severely (as others have pointed out, the
differences between the parties here is actually small).

Myself? I am strongly biased against whoever is in power. They bear the
burden of proof of what they have done - their accomplishments. I am vastly
unimpressed by the current administration: the deception, the secrecy, the
control and manipulation, the intrusion of the Church into politics, the
poor economic performance, the corruption, the list goes on and on. I don't
know if Kerry would do any better but I would rather he and his
administration have the chance than continue on what to me seems like a very
bad path. Remember also that the Republicans had majorities across the
government these past 4 years so if ever there they had the opportunity to
show their mettle this was it and to me it looks pretty obvious their
performance was poor *at best*. I would never accept such screwed-up
leadership in a corporation I had interest in, so why should I in the
country I live in?

If Kerry gets in, I will be just or even more critical of his
administration's performance. The bigger the mess (and it seems to be
getting worse rather than better), the higher my expectations are of the
administration of the most powerful country on the planet.

Do I think we are better off than we were 4 years ago? No. Does the
current administration seem to have a clear plan to improve things? No.
Therefore, time for change.

Just my humble opinion.
