>Even with all of that hindsight, Kerry is still saying he would have voted for the war. Do you think Kerry really means it, or do you think it's all "politics"? Not positive. I think he means it, as if it were "politics," he'd look at the polls and see that most of the country no longer favors the war. >Kind of a non-answer on your part. I'm pretty sure you didn't contribute your $275 just to perpetuate this political nonsense. I contributed $275 to Kerry because under a Kerry presidency, we'd be much more likely than under the Bush administration to not roll back environmental laws, to protect abortion rights, to keep a strong barrier between church and state, and to reduce the deficits, among other things. I do like Kerry -- he's a good speaker and he certainly reflects me more than Bush does, so I'm comfortable voting for him and was happy to donate to his cause. Even if I don't like the process, I can see the benefit in working with it. On the other hand, one of my friends was practically begging me today to get into politics, and I have a hard time thinking about it because it would require me to try to be something other than myself much more often than I'm comfortable with. -Z
