[Carrie]

I've voted Democrat for President one time - Clinton's first term.
I was in a very liberal college and doing work on the side counseling drug/alcohol/abuse addicts.
I summarily watched Clinton destroy our defense, lay thousands (if not hundreds of thousands) of people off work in the defense industry, and saw my Dad get laid off from his job for simply LOOKING around to see if there was anything better. (Lockheed Martin doesn't like hearing rumors that you're thinking about leaving.)

Thanks to Clinton's cuts, Dad got laid off 3 times in a year and a half and had to move to another state in between.

Now he, Mom, and Hubby are all working for the same defense contractor who just laid off 40 people two weeks ago and the work just isn't there... they're struggling to keep enough work to keep the people that they have.

Vote for Kerry?
Fuck no.

At this time about the *only* thing I can be sure of with Bush is that he won't cut defense even more... everything else he's turned into such an overspending socialist on I can't even believe he's Republican.

I don't know what the hell I'm going to do come November. There truly is no one for *me* to vote for.
