Default What will Kerry do?

1. Will he immediately withdraw all troops from Iraq?


Doubtful. He'll get us out of Iraq, but not via an immediate
withdrawal.

2. Will he tighten the borders to stop illegal aliens?


I would expect little change from the present policy.

3. Will he give the middle class a tax break?


Short term: no. Long term: yes. By getting the deficit under control,
the middle class will pay less in taxes in the long run under Kerry than
under Bush. Remember that the $500 BILLION annual deficit is a plan for
long term increases in taxes. (or maybe it's no plan at all, which
would be par for the course)

4. Will he outspend Bush?


I don't think so, even if he wanted to. Congress won't rubber-stamp his
proposals like they have for Bush. And he might actually veto a
spending bill as too expensive, something W hasn't had the courage to
do.

5. Will he see to it that corrupt big business men are prosecuted?


Absolutely. Elliot Spitzer for Attorney General! BTW, if this is a
point of concern for you, then you should under no circumstances vote
for a guy who appointed Harvey Pitt as SEC chair.

What is he going to do?


Govern like an adult.

Oh, and you forgot an important question: Does he know how to sail?
