13. Don't mean to be negative
But anyone that thinks all the Gore voters from 2000 are going to vote Kerry is off the mark. Most will of course, but I am absolutely certain that there are people who will go Bush this time that didn't last time. A big part of those are middle-aged white men who like a good war and feel only Republicans can wage it. (And I'm a 34-year-old white man voting for Kerry, so I'm only slamming my peers.) I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not counting on having all the Gore voters on the Kerry side and having to just convince a small number of Bush supporters from 2000 to cross over. And don't forget Nader. Who knows what impact he's going to have. He could pull less than a half percent in some state and have it be enough to swing the whole election, that's how close this could be.
