That's why I'm backing Bush
Reader comment on item: 9/10 vs. 9/12 on [Election Day] 11/2
Submitted by Ray Low (United States), Oct 27, 2004 at 18:23
4 years ago, I was a liberal Democrat who supported Gore. Next Tuesday (Nov. 2), I'm backing George Bush. I can deal with Kerry in times of peace where no life-and-death decision is required of him. Since our national life is dependent on a strong leader, I have to make sure the right man is in the White House, and I believe Bush is the right man.
