[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I doubt many such people exist in LA, but such a person would definitely be a Romney voter.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Jenna - Obama

Sam - Obama

Larry - Where he lives is important, I'll guess Romney

Wesley - If he lives on the west coast or northeast, Obama, south, Sunbelt or most parts of the Midwest, probably Romney.

Arturo - Obama

David - Obama

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Steven: 38 years old, lives in Madison, Wisconsin, has a public sector job and belongs to a union. Is divorced, has one child whom he does not have custody of, hires escorts on a regular basis, drinks alcohol almost every night, frequently uses marijuana, is not religious.

Mike: 23 years old, recent college graduate, now unemployed, just quit his job doing pizza delivery but has a huge trust fund from very affluent parents in the Philly suburbs. Does work at temp agencies to pass the time, lives in Philadelphia, has a girlfriend but is not interested in marriage, spends most of his time going to hardcore and indie rock shows and getting drunk but doesn't do any other drugs, is not religious.

Jenny: 27 years old, went to a Christian university for two years before dropping out, works as a receptionist at a local accounting firm in Denver but is hoping to return to college soon. Attends an evangelical charismatic church with a mostly younger congregation, took an abstinence pledge in her teens but doesn't follow it and didn't with her last boyfriend, is pro-life but supports gay marriage, uses pot with her friends including some people in her church small group.

Joe: 33 years old, lives a Seattle suburb, works at a bank. Is not opposed to gay marriage but does not care much about the issue, is vaguely pro-life but considers it a low priority, supports drug legalization but is personally straightedge, reads Ayn Rand and generally adheres to her philosophy. Supported Ron Paul in 2008 and 2012 but was also creeped out by some of the more cult-like supporters. Was engaged last year but ended up breaking it off, is vaguely religious and only attends church on holidays.

Lol! As a former evangelical fundie myself, I can attest that this pretty well shadows countless young females that I've met at church.  The pot-smoking is a bit unlikely, but the abstinence pledge-breaking and dropping out of bible school sounds like pretty typical fare for a 20-something fundie girl nowadays.

I know lots of people like this, and they certainly aren't unlikely to use pot (to put it rather mildly.) I have even been with people who have said grace before passing around weed. But I wouldn't call them "fundies" by any stretch, evangelical and fundie are not the same thing, the support of gay marriage alone would disqualify this.

opebo would he be likely to be in Thailand now?

Me too, Ive even done it myself, cant really see anything wrong with it, weed is after all one of Gods gifts

In Denmark? I'm just surprised at people in Denmark saying grace at all.

But yeah theologically I agree with this, it's also backed up by Genesis 1:29 and 1 Timothy 4:4.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

All of those four are likely Obama except the second person who probably doesn't vote.

How about:

Person 5:

Jawbreaker
Fugazi
Rites of Spring
Lifetime
Nation of Ulysses
Born Against
Mineral
Sunny Day Real Estate

Person 6:

Slayer
Emperor
Cannibal Corpse
Dimmu Borgir
Mayhem
Morbid Angel
Deicide

I was thinking Obama too, but I also wonder what is the profile of the people in the Bay Area who actually are Republicans.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

How about these real life people?

-A girl I saw a couple rows in front of me at church who was holding her arms out to the side the entire time during worship if not raising them in the air. Was wearing a blank shirt, jeans and had one of those club bracelets I made a poll about elsewhere still on, and seemed to be in tears by the closing prayer.
-A group of olds I saw leaving a church near me when I was driving back which is one of the most liberal ones in the city that is actively campaigning against banning gay marriage. All of the olds were very dressed up, with all the men wearing suits and ties and the women wearing fancy dresses.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Democratic. Is this just working like this now?

sirnick- that person would be my dad.

64, black and asian, worth $100 million, not tiger woods, president of NRA and NARAL

Romney.

Next: 32, Presbyterian, white male, works at an IT company in Dallas, TX, makes $62,000 a year, married without children, attends church roughly once a month.

In Dallas he'd be for Romney. If he was on one of the coasts likely Obama.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

1 is clearly lean Romney. 2 is clearly lean Obama.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

I was going to point out that if he's 29 he was not even eligible to vote in 2000, but then I realized it is possible if his birthday is before November.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]
