Vouchers are the reason that I decided against Bradley. Education is one of my main concerns, and vouchers take money from public schools, so I could never support someone in favor of them.

I don't think McCain will be able to win New York or California. People in both states can't vote in primaries outside their registered party, & the reason McCain has won states so far is crossover voting. A lot of democrats & independents are voting for him.

And I don't think Nader is going to show up on the ballots in New York, except possibly as a write in. The only parties to make it into the primaries here were Republican, Democrat, and Green. The only people who will appear in the ballots that *I* can vote in will be Bradley and Gore, & since NY is voting on the seventh of March, there's no time to get a decent write in campaign going.

I did read something a couple of weeks ago about some 30,000 people in California had re-registered as republicans, the likeliest reason being to vote for McCain in the primaries. Still, 30,000 out of a state of 30 million isn't dramatic. And I'm not entirely sure they were all in California.
