Met 2 former Bush voters who will not vote Bush again this year...
The wife said that she didn't know if she could vote for Kerry and might just stay home. When I asked her why - she said because of his voting record. I told her that you have to look over and beyond voting records because at times there are things "attached" to the bills and they vote against it for that reason and also that there is often a similar bill for the same thing that they end up voting for instead.

The husband had at one point been for the war and now he is against it...

Two fewer votes for Bush in Florida....

2. I've found that friends and family are starting to take out their...
dislike of Jeb on W! Lotsa cut backs, and people who are first responders or working in State agencies are especially pissed off. They can't strike back at one Bush, so they will strike back at another come November.

3. I know another one
I saw a cousin last week that I hadn't seen since she moved to Texas 30 years ago.
I told her I was ABB and explained what that was. She pretty much agreed with me. She said she voted for Bush in 2000 even though others tried to talk her out of it.
I didn't have time to go into it but if I had, I might have mentioned the hypocracy of his claim that we shouldn't judge him for what he did before he found Christ, but he didn't allow that rule to stand for Carla Faye Tucker.

4. Little by little, a few people at a time...
...things are changing...I noted on ABC news tonight that B* only won Ohio by 100,000 some votes, but that over 200,000 have lost jobs since he was appointed to his (figures are approximate)...I hope your average Buckeye can put 2+2 together.
