I know that a lot of liberals(AND conservatives) in this coming election are going to be voting for Kerry even though they hate him, for whatever reason, even though he's not much different from Bush. This has been coined as the Anyone But Bush Party, those who look only for the most likely candidate to unseat the incumbant.
My question is, how many of you who plan on voting for Kerry would vote for someone else if you knew they had a chance of winning? How many of you ABB people actually LIKE Kerry the best?

I would have to honestly believe in what a third candidate had to offer, but chances are that I'd vote for an alternative to Kerry. As it stands, I'd like to do anything to get rid of Bush, but I don't believe replacing him with Kerry will be the best solution. I do however dislike Bush enough to vote for Kerry though. It's my opinion this election that rather than voting for the lest of two evils, I'm going to vote for the candidate who I think will cause the least amount of damage to the nation.

It all depends on the two candidates. I mean if it's just another schmo Republican I'd go with Kerry, but if it was a good solid Republican who I could put my faith in to at least take what the people say to heart (if not act on it), I might go Republican for the vote.

If Dean had stepped up as a hopeful, I'd throw my support for him. He's the type of Republican that I believe truly represents the party to its fullest, no BS.
