I voted for Kerry. As far as I could see, Bush didn't do even one thing he'd said he would..and he did lots of things he said he wouldn't.

Well, he did get his tax cut passed in 2003. Also, you can't really blame him for Social Security reform not happening...he tried and congress didn't want to cooperate. (Not trying to defend anything he's done, but he does deserve credit for the tax cut)

Bush was very irresponsible with his tax cuts in my opinion because he didnt cut spending as well.

When you cut taxes and increase spending, thats worse than not cutting taxes and leaving spending the same. He caused a situation where we just printed up more money to cover the amount lost by the tax cuts.

Like Ron Paul says, you cant cut taxes if you dont cut spending as well. If you do, you just end up with inflation that is just another tax that more than negates the tax cut he made, which in reality is just a RAISE in taxes.

I too voted for Mr. Not-Bush (Kerry). I thought he would be marginally less bad than Bush.

 

[amonasro]

I voted Bush. Please don't kill me!!!

 

[Richandler]

I voted for myself. Kerry was going to win California. However, I would love to visit the public records and see if I received my vote.

I mean I may have been a little young to qualify for office, another stupid rule, but that doesn't mean my vote shouldn't count.

These are actually really interesting results. Even the vast majority of the hard core grassroots mostly did not vote republican last election. The polls could be even more biased then we originally thought. If they probably exclude, even his most devoted grassroots then what percentage of the rest of his following do they exclude?

 

[Buzz]

Kerry, but it was meant as a vote against Bush.

Same. I was only 18 and have gotten a lot wiser since then...

Taxes aren't really cut if you refuse to balance the budget. What are we, nine trillion dollars in debt?

I'm pretty sure he didn't try for SS reform until after he was re-elected. But that I do applaud him for!

 

[guntherg16]

I voted for Peroutka. I had to write him in.

I didn't want to waste my vote by attempting to vote for the lesser of two evils.

 

[BillyDkid]

Wow, interesting mix. Honestly, I'm surprised to see so many Bush voters in 2004. I would have thought the first 4 years would have cured anyone. But I see this as a really good thing - so many people willing to open their minds and change what were probably closely held views. It's an admirable thing.

 

[erowe1]

Bush's SCOTUS nominees were enough of a reason for me. And the fact that taxes would be lower under his tenure than they would under Kerry's was an added bonus.

 

[Mandrik]

Kerry. At the time I was a registered Democrat, but my vote was a "Because he's not Bush and is the only candidate who has a chance to beat him" type vote. About a week after the election, I changed to unaffiliated because the more I read the more I realized I was absolutely not a Democrat.

Haven't tax revenues increased after the tax cut?

 

[erowe1]

Who did the people vote for who said "other"?

 

[erowe1]

Why isn't there more support here for Bush's Supreme Court nominees? I would expect that part of his tenure to go over pretty well here even if nothing else does. Frankly, I would vote for him again just because I think Roberts and Alito are so greatly superior to anyone Kerry or Gore would ever nominate.
