Re: What if Kerry wins??
I have to admit I am not a huge Kerry fan, but I think he would do ok.<br /><br />It depends on who he gets in key positions.<br /><br />I think our foreign policy will take on a major change in our relations with the rest of the world, for the better. Not sure it will be in time to help in Iraq, and the middle east may well be in crisis mode that will be difficult for anyone to get a handle on.<br /><br />As far as the economy goes, it really depends on who he gets as an advisor. If he sides with the labor unions too much, it could be big trouble. If he does what he says he will do, and reverse the tax cut on the rich, and leave the cut on the middle class and others, perhaps even extending the tax cut on the middle class, the economy will boom and the deficit will shrink. Ironically, just like in the Clinton years, the rich will benefit from this policy far more than any tax cut will ever get them, and they will do better than ever. Which is just fine by me.<br /><br />We will make a dent in the rolls of the un-insured, hopefully, and reverse recent losses in environmental quality.<br /><br />And finally start to seriously look at and fund alternative energy technology .<br /><br />All in all, it could go ok, or it could go really good, depending on who he listens to. It could not possibly be as bad the current administration, however.
