Swing state voters sound off.
Swing state voters, I am wondering about what you think the Democrats' prospects are for carrying your state in the GE. This is how I see it... we could get some or all of NH, OH, FL, WV, LA, AR, and AZ. There are others which we could swing to our side but I believe these are the closest. If you live in any of these states or in one which you think we may swing to our side, please let us know how you feel.

1. AZ will be VERY close
That's the feeling I get. People are pissed at Bush here just like everywhere else, and we just elected a democratic governer.

2. I hope FL will be close....
South FL is anti-Bush and Im trying to stir up some activism within my community...but North FL, save Tallahassee and Gainesville, is still conservative country...I think we have a great shot though!

4. I didn't realize TN was a swing state.
Sadly, I don't think my vote will matter much, here. I think it's going to go to Bush again. I've been pretty isolated the past year though, because of bed rest, and then having my baby, so maybe sentiment has changed.

5. LA's a swing state?
I can't see bush losing LA - especially if Kerry's the dem's candidate - no one south of the mason-dixon line trusts anyone from New England.

6. Bush didn't win Louisiana by much
and the state is mostly Democratic.
