Story to make you smile!
Yesterday at District Dem HQ I spotted a very wealthy Republican woman phoning. I have known her for years and she is a partisan Republican. She donated to the max for Bush this year. She was phoning for a local candidate and I was surprised . I asked the Candidate who the woman was voting for beside herself, and she told me, Kerry ,but that she didn't want people to know! But I listened to her phone and she was talking people into voting for Kerry! When she left the Republican women walked to my car and said , "I want you to know that I am doing this because I admire you!" She then pointed to my Impeach Bush bumper sticker and said "I love your sticker" I said it had been on my car for 3 and 1/2 years.She said" I admire you even more now. Thank you!"
The point of this is, how many others are out there? We even have the President of the Republican Women's Club campaigning for Kerry and she is more passionate then a lot of Dems! I am taking this as a sign that we are going to win. I would have thought the earth would have opened up before I would have seen that Republican woman phoning for Kerry and a local Dem.

2. Do Not underestimate the disdain Wealthy Republicans have
for Freeps, Fundies and other Bushites. This reflects the coming struggle in the Republican Party......

3. Point to make to repugs
I tell my repug neighbors and family to remember that when they enter the booth, they're all alone and they can vote for anyone they want. After they leave the booth the can tell everyone they voted for Bush even though they didnt.

5. Wouldn't it be a hoot if all the people who said BUSH in the polls...

"What? Kerry with 85% of the vote?" cried Rove as blood ran from his ears... he clutched his pudgy chest and feel dead without a groan.

Amen.

4. Lots of Republicans are just looking for an excuse to vote Kerry...

John Zogby said it best, 'In a Bush vs. 'Not Bush' race, 'Not Bush' wins decisively'.
