Bush's stance on abortion is why my mother-in-law is voting for him. My father-in-law will vote for Bush because he always picks the Republican candidate.
My mother, who has never voted in her life, finally registered to vote. I played dirty with her emotions, and scared her into voting for Kerry because of Bush's war politics and my brother being 18 - prime age for draft/ enlistment.
My grandmother is voting for a Democrat for the first time in her life. She's very anti-abortion, but she's more anti-war, having lived through WWI, WWII, Korea, and Vietnam. She says she thought Bush should've declared war on a country, not on an idea ("terrorism") and sees him as being the worst president in her lifetime.
