Yeah the margain was huge! I was not surprised. I am pro-Bush, and I consider myself a VERY educated voter....I did not grow up Republican, I came to a decision myself based on my beliefs.
Everyone has their own opinion, yes, but I don't think it's right to put people down because of their beliefs. I don't judge people for what they believe, and I'm not going to act crazy and go set fire to all the people who voted for Kerry. It was a fair vote, and I would have said that no matter who won.

And so disapointed in voters and our system.. not just about Bush- though why oh why did Kerry concede before they had OH results????
but about the MI gay marriage bill that passed and has now not only gone against gay marriage- which I care deeply about but more importantly and why I was campaigning so heavily against the bill- IT TOOK AWAY EXISTING DOMESTIC PARTNERSHIP BENEFITS WITHIN THE STATE FOR ANYONE, INCLUDING HETEROSEXUAL COUPLES! inheritance and medical issues will now abound.. the bigger one is that we go from many without medical insurance to many more without it now!

oh god.. I know.. I live in massachusetts.. land of democrats.. (although suprisingly they have a repulblican governer who won by alot.. i think its because the democrat option was a woman)but thats another story. Anyways.. you talk about bush here and they'll just about tell you your the biggest loser in the world. It is tough.. I just keep my mouth shut.
Yesterday in class, our teachers said you get 10%added to your grade if you voted.. and 25% if you voted for kerry the good guy. oh please.

I am so suprised about that as well. They spent tons of money on VOTE OR DIE.. CHOSE OR LOSE.. young people pick america and I heard on TV that in 2000 only 18% of people 18-30 voted.. and that this year.. once again only 18% voted. suprisingly it didnt' really influence anything.
Although.. I do no some people that purposely didn't want to vote to see if pdiddy would really show up at their door and kill them. hehe

I know I agree.. but.. my program has 16 people in it.. only two of which are from massachusetts. so I think he noted that some of us were not amused and later said he was joking. hmmm.. who knows if he really was though orginally?
