Not the bible thumpers. Bush has secured that vote very well. It's the classic conservatives. The ones who oppose the Iraq war, the ones who don't like his tremendous lack of fiscal restraint. The ones who aren't enamored with his cowtowing to the bible thumper vote. The ones who don't like the social programs he has expanded like medicare.

These are people Bush has to worry about. They could go to Kerry as Kerry touts his fiscal conservative pledge plus military record. Or go libertarian or other third party. Or they could abstain from voting this term.

One of this boards conservative members, Sixate has expressed anger at Bush to the point that he absolutely will not vote for him. (did it in General Discussion) This came out of the Howard Stern censorship situation. I highly doubt he is the only one. He won't vote Kerry, but Bush isn't getting the vote either. That's still a net positive result for Kerry.
