Just a few minutes ago on way home from the post office saw rustbucket car still bearing its "Bush-Cheney 04" sticker and had to wonder why anyone poor would vote for the wealthy special interests candidate. And how long it will take them to figure out it was a mistake. cgreenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8695598.post-1108354123752573292005-02-13T20:08:00.000-08:002005-02-13T20:08:00.000-08:00This is a dilemma.
