The big UNKNOWN factor in this race isn't counted in Polls.

During the last election more Democrats stayed home, out of laziness. Many liberals voted for Nader or one of the other parties based on principles.

This time I think we'll see all the lazy folks have learned their lesson... PAINFULLY... Unemployment is no fun. Having your kid, who joined up because of no job prospects, sent to Iraq to fight for Oil Company Profits is irritating. Having his tour EXTENDED to fight in a war that was declared over by a preppie is even more irritating.

Voting for principals is one thing, Nader gets a lot of principled votes, but survival of America is another. Many Nader voters may still say they are going to vote Nader, they want to the polls to reflect their true wishes, but I think when it actually comes down to it they'll vote for Kerry. Bush has almost guaranteed this with CORRUPTION and WAR and UNEMPLOYMENT.

So the polls, although they look close, do not reflect the true nature of the actual vote this time.

I'm one of the Nader voters who will be voting AGAINST BUSH this time and I know a lot of others. I don't like the Democrats at all but the MASSIVE CORRUPTION AND INCOMPETENCE of the Bush Administration has pushed me to Kerry.

This makes me feel pretty confident that Kerry will win. I'm fairly relaxed about it. However you know I'll be calling all my friends on poll day.
