Why Vote for Bush?
It is a question that needs answers and meaning and done so very quickly......
For me it is simple. Bush will execute the war on terror. Kerry will do so as a response.... He views terror as an "inconvenience"....
Here's a great article written by a young women with dual citizenship (Great Britain/US) who will be voting for Bush. She runs in those circles that admitting such a thing, would constitute "betrayal" by the rest of the class.
She speaks elegantly and from the heart.
She starts the article set in a high class/high dollar party with the social/economic elite of New York:
Then she gets to the heart of the matter:
The Democrats view themselves as revolutionaries. See Civil Rights, War on Vietnam, Vietnam protests. Unfortunately, they have not found further revolutions to espouse. They rest on their laurels. In a lot of ways, they are the conservatives: they want to "conserve" what they have done and progress no further.
What has decided this more than anything is the timing of the terrorists. IF 9/11 happened on 9/11/94 or 9/11/96, the Republican/conservatives would STILL be going on about the heroism and skill of President Clinton, along with their brethren Democrats. Yes, really.
President Clinton was a lot of things, but having his own opinion was not one of them. He did whatever the polls dictated. If 9/11 happened on his watch, we would be celebrating the new democracies of Afghanistan, Iraq, IRAN and Syria....... He would have done it because he would have had the backing of both Democrats AND Republicans.
The problem with many is that the War on Terror landed on Bush's watch. It is the timing of inconvenience to Democrats that irk them so much. Bush is a revolutionary and they are not on that side....... And they hate him for that!!!!

When the metrosexual chap standing next to me confides that urban sophisticates prefer Kerry because "you have to have a low IQ to appreciate Bush", I know I am making the right decision.
Then she gets to the heart of the matter:
My decision is based on a straightforward proposition: I do not want the global jihadists and women-hating fundamentalists to be celebrating Bush's defeat. They do not deserve to win, even if Bush deserves to lose, a position I am not quite willing to concede.Then she states what I think so many Democrats find so scary:
On foreign policy, Bush is the idealist and Kerry the conservative, afraid to disturb the status quo.
The Democrats view themselves as revolutionaries. See Civil Rights, War on Vietnam, Vietnam protests. Unfortunately, they have not found further revolutions to espouse. They rest on their laurels.
