5. Sadly convinced my parents not to vote.
After years of pointing out Bush's failures, there was still no way my parents were going to pull the lever for Kerry. They havent voted for a Dem since JFK (and yes, I did say that was more than a coincidence that this is another "JFK"). Recently, they've avowed that they're now "independents" -- probably because I've become so rabid at what * has been doing, and that they're not behind anyone because they're all liars.

So yesterday, I played on their ingrained "their all crooks and liars" mindset and got them to throw in the towel on voting. They're not going to vote and I feel a little guilty -- BUT then again, they side with Dems on 8/10 of the issues when presented with them so I'm really doing them a favor. Besides, there's nothing worse than having your own family negate your vote
