Which issue will hurt J.Kerry the most?

[zachman]

Its not on the list but being undecisive. His responses seem to incorporate all sides, and do not give a final conclusion.

I hope that Kerry can switch from a Bush-basher to a reform oppurtunity democrat. He is as angry as Dean but without the media criticism.

[zachman]

You probably are right about the southern voter, but the gay marriage issue will get progressively worse for Bush in this election- especially in attrcting independents. Seeing smiling crying gays on TV, will reduce the opposition to gay marriage, and the issue will become near-even by the election.

[zachman]

Independents are not inclined in any way to vote for Bush. As long as Kerry picks a luring VP he will win independents.

Independents also realize what the Republican smear machine is doing.

[zachman]

The judges are not out of control (the Massachusetts judges should have not required it to be called marriage though). Only the Massachusetts court has gone beyond the norm. It seems likely California will make a similar ruling shortly. The judges in Mass. were using the constitution as their basis.

Taxes is the only explanation for a Kerry loss in NH.  

NH has no historym and I'm not real proud of it.

[zachman]

Television vs. non-viewers, that is another Democrat vs. Republican, Urban vs. rural split.

Homosexuality is surely unnormal, but it is natural. Did you see the Samantha Bee report on the Daily Show about the gay penguins? That was good.
