I don't think you've done a very effective search of these candidates.

Also perhaps you missed the point where I stated I've spent the better part of the week researching this, these few links I gave were to start you off, not a total tally

But the argument can be made specifically Against Kerry simply based on just his stance on abortion, as a Catholic you should see that, have you read any of those links?  If not, then at least read this one
http://www.catholic.org/featured/headline.php?ID=1321

I don't want to vote for Bush anymore than you do, and like I said before, read both parts, those for and against Kerry.  I didn't say just to read only the reasons to vote for Kerry, which you can certainly find aplenty using the google search I posted, but read everything you can about both.

I certainly Do Not think Bush is a more moral leader over all, and I disagree with alost everything about Bush, I see him on the telly and he makes me sick*lol*  but there's the matter of "proportionate reasons".

I started my search this week a Kerry supporter.  I've read uncountable websites along this subject, because my wife is voting for Bush because of Kerrys stance on abortion. My intent on researching this was to find reasons to argue with my wife to vote for Kerry.

I despise Bush, and it made me feel physically ill to even consider voting for him, but after everything I've read, it really comes down to one simple thing.  Being a Catholic, I cannot vote for someone who is pro-abortion.  Kerry is. As much as I can't stand Bush, I know that by voting for Kerry I will be supporting abortion. By voting for a third party I will technically aiding Kerry by not giving Bush my vote, and thus be technically aiding abortion.

All the other things I can't stand about Bush don't outweigh the millions of unborn children Kerry will allow to die. Even when I look for arguments that there's no guarantee that Bush will be able to stop abortion, (certainly he Can't stop it alone) I can't find enough to support me to vote for Kerry because of the simple fact that by voting for Kerry (or by Not voting for Bush) my vote will be For abortion.

Now, when I did finally admit to myself that I Did have to vote for Bush because of all this, I felt comforted; A couple of days ago I felt Sick at the thought that I was being "forced" to vote for Bush because of my faith, but I'm now at peace with it.

Florida Catholic, I can only give you the advice to search and read more about it. Perhaps you might even try searching for reasons to prove you should vote for Kerry, as I did, and yet still find the truth. Perhap you'll find yourself led to vote for Kerry after all, but I'll leave you with these few links to start with, or you could just read the Bible and find the Truth there, eh? ;o)  there's still time before the election.
