6. It does worry me some, but..
I feel you are mis-characterizing the position of most ABB'ers. First the slogan arose before we had any serious candidates to follow, and was just a mantra that it didn't matter who was going to end up running against bush, all that mattered was bush's defeat in November. This doesn't mean you can't choose your own candidate in the primary, it just means that all ABB'ers will be for the winning candidate in November. About the family that you registered to vote, I hope that they are not the typical voter, which I doubt due to the fact that you had to register them to vote. The same apathy which caused them not to be registered before, is the same thing that is causing them not to vote in the primaries. Could it be that they don't know issues, and all they care about is ABB? Could be, and if so at least we are getting more people to vote, I could care less about the "uninformed voter" as long as they are voting democratic party in November :7
