Smacked up side the head by a Republican!

[Speck Tater]

A long time friend totally shocked me yesterday with a revalation I would never have believed. She said she voted for Bush (no surprise there) but she said she considered him the lesser of two evils, because she couldn't vote for the man she really wanted to see in the White House.

She felt there was no meaningful difference between Kerry and Bush, and she wanted to see someone who was not politics as usuall get elected. She, a staunch Republican, wanted to vote for Howard Dean because she thought he was the only candidate who could have made any difference at all.

When she saw they way the Dems railroaded Dean out of the race she came to the conclusion that the Democrats are just as corrupt and power hungry as the Republicans so it didn't make one bit of difference.

That has always been my conclusion too, but to hear it from a faithful Republican was just more thanb I expected to ever hear.
