[Dems2008] Re: Being Liberal

I'm inclined to agree with you Isabelle, except I have a friend who
is a die hard Republican and is suffering the effects of this, as
Bush called it, "slowed down" economy yet he refused to vote for any
candidate that isn't anti-choice and anti-gay rights. Even if it
means more money in his pocket, he'd rather vote on a woman's uterus
than his job.
