19. I live on the border with Ohio (WV)...
and actually was born over there-know a lot of people from Buckeyeland...know a lot of republicans, too.

One friend I have known for 30 years and who has always been a republican has completely washed his hands of them...says they aren't really republicans...calls them the party of Capitalist Pigs! His wife, a fundamentalist christian, told me they think corporate America is the Beast-a souless, inhuman, world spanning entity. My buddy has a son of voting age this time, and he is working on him and his mother- and father-in-law. I think this is how we will win the next election...people quietly talking to people. It helps that their daughter's boyfriend is heading for Iraq now with the Marines...and the son is draft-age.

The best links I find with dirt on Bush I send over there and they send them on to all their extended family and friends, all over the US. It makes a big difference if you recieve these kinds of e-mails from people you trust. I'm sure many of you know someone who you may have written off as being icorrigibly paleolithic in times past. Maybe now is the time to ask them what they think of George Bush and the republican party...maybe send a link on awol, or some such-there is so much to chose from! You might be surprised.

My friends fundamentalist wife is gonna go nuts when she finds out about the 15 year old girl abortion story!! And then she will e-mail it to all her friends! I am so happy! I love the internet...it is so...connected.
