This would be more interesting if someone did this with real people and let Atlas guess.

Not a single one of these people votes Republican, because the GOP has done something to alienate each and every last one of them.
Call it the Stockholm syndrome, but people continue to vote Republican.

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.

Liberal Democrat.  Probably a Tom Barrett and Dennis Kucinich fan.  Definitely Obama, unless he's in a real cynical mood around election time (escort girls start over-charging), in which case he may vote Green.

This sounds like another confused liberal douche, but he also might be a Ron Paul supporter (depends on how cool he is).  Either Obama or a Ron Paul write-in, but there's a strong chance he may not even be sober enough to go out and vote on election day.

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.  Jenny probably isn't into the secular social liberalism/feminism of Democrats, but she also is probably into social justice and left-leaning on fiscal issues.  She's another confused young adult going through a right-of-passage.  If she meets and marries a decent Christian man, she'll evolve into a hallmark-card conservative.  If life continues to be rough, somewhere around 30 she'll go off the deep, stop attending church and become a heinous liberal.  For now, she's a swing voter, but probably leaning Obama this time around.

Another libertariantard.  Most likely Romney, but may go Libertarian or another RP write-in if Paul gets shafted at the RNC and/or if Romney nominates a Palin-esque moonbat for his running mate and the economy is improving anyways. 
How bad is this post for 100?

Except looking at this guy's profile, it would be in his best interest to vote Republican. If for whatever reason he ignores that and votes for Obama, then yes, I'd say he's buying into the hype.

For example, Warren Buffet is buying into the hype.

What else would you call going against your best interests to vote for the popular celeb?
No voting for Obama will not result in the feared guillotine.

Sorry, did I use the word "entirely?" Unlike Barack Obama, Mitt Romney will be a president for all people. Not one who wages a war against the successful just to make it look like he's starting to pay for his reckless expenditures. Nice try.
You forgot about the women, the poor, and the not-white.
