Bush once, but not twice

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I am one of those that switched to Bush in 2004.  I voted for Browne in 2000, but due to the importance of foreign policy and the closeness of the election I had to vote for him.

Because we all know NY was going to be such a close and important state.

I hated him in 2000 and voted against him in 2004, although my opinion of him actually got lower between those years.

My state was a swing state however. I'm just pointing out your claim of the "closeness of hte election" making it important is rather weak.
