LINK: Joe points out this Slate article on who different authors would be voting for, which includes the following bit I found really interesting:
"To enumerate these reasons [to vote for Kerry], to repeat yet another time the fundamental litany of liberal principles that need to be reclaimed and revitalized, seems to be redundant and unnecessary."
Actually, I'm not sure I've ever heard them enumerated once. So feel free to discuss them in the comments, with perhaps specific reference to what makes them 'fundamental.'

that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
