Sean has reluctantly fallen on the Kerry side of the fence, for thoughtful reasons. Like him, I have trouble offering any wonderful endorsement of Kerry…it was just the best option available.
I’ve never made my dislike of Bush a secret. I think he does a great job keeping himself looking really clean while others in his administration do the dirty work…but over time I’ve become more and more disgusted by the underlying seediness of the way his administration does business. Most publicly through Chaney’s brutal and misleading remarks, and most effectively through Carl Rove’s whisper campaigns and backdoor dealings. I didn’t like him in his days as Texas Governor, but it was in the South Carolina primary against McCain before the 2000 election that it really became clear the type of people that stood behind Bush and his willingness to tolerate whatever tactics they saw fit to use.
