3 down, one to go!!!

So I have(almost)done my part...

Convincing my co-workers, in So.Indiana of all places, to vote for Kerry!!!

Weeks of enlightenment, daily educational truths of our local media's spins, and gallons of ink from my printer so they can read THE FACTS!!!... (seriously, one guy still relies on rabbit ears!)

Tally of my learned refutes?

We've got 1 city boy (transplant from Atlanta),

A Dairy farmer, from here,

And of course me! (no prob convincing me of the truth...)

But there is one left, my favorite Bush supporter that I have yet to convince...

He is a conservative HIGHLY religious 58 year old that has admitted to voting straight repub ticket since the 60's!!!

Now I know my work isn't over, but with his health and George's lack of compasion for seniors, I think I'll get this one nipped in the bud before Nov 2nd...

Wish me luck, as I have learned in the past Indiana needs it!!!

1. Nice! For the last one, print out the God stuff
toward the end of the last debate. Kerry BEAT BUSH'S ASS on God.

2. And if you can't get him to vote Kerry, you might try for third-party or
simply not voting, him, I mean. A bit devious, but: maybe you should point him toward Badnarik or (shudder) Peroutka.

4. Until last night...

Dairy farmer was fighting me tooth and nail!!!

Said he watched a program where Bush denounced environmentalism???

I searched through my TV guide to no avail, did anyone catch it???

I am elated he changed his mind, but one show???

How many influential shows does John have in the wing?

And as far as Bible man is concerned... I am very religious as well, and I have used everything from the (past governor's) abuse of the death penalty to the blatant lying to the brotherhood to sway him...

I'm telling you, this guy is a repukian rock!!!

3. Now all you have to do is get them to move to a swing state
so their vote counts for something. Well, maybe some day Indiana will be in play.

5. I can only hope...

I am a transplant from Cali, where I, at the very least, thought I had a voice...

6. okay....
...copy that article from salon.com written by the Reagan honcho telling conservatives to vote FOR KERRY. And copy that letter John Eisenhower wrote throwing his support to Kerry.

Those two items might influence this guy.

9. You might find that link on DU (still active tonight) that shows abortions
rising substantially under Shrub, vs. falling under Clinton.

If you need, I can did it up for you.
