Kerry is also significantly different than Bush on the Environment. Kerry's a tree hugger and Bush is a "if a tree falls in the woods, is there someone there to deem that forest unfit so we can clearcut the whole grove." kinda guy.
Kerry is against Bush's changes to New Source Review, which will allow Bush's campaign contributors to perform maintenance on the most dirty power plants in the nation without upgrading their emmissions. This includes allowing them to increase their mercury emissions four-fold. Mercury poisoning is already causing brain damage to children in this country.
He is also fully against how Bush is administering No Child Left Behind. Changes to that will have a big impact on the US
I'd say there are significant differences between the two other than the gay issue.
