Woohoo!

uh.  brtd for whom did you vote in 2004?

i voted bush.

voted for him in 2000 too.

Not surprising given you still have the same views as a 2003 Republican during the invasion of Iraq.

Walter why are you going to vote for the guy who is the opposite of your original candidate's views?  Are you just that bitter that she LOST?

There's nothing unusual about that. If people voted their views, the Republican party would cease to exist, and some liberal party would beat the crap out of the Democratic party.

in general, i do find obama supporters to be obnoxious, idealists and shallow.  and ive never much cared for people who blindly follow the in-crowd.  ive certainly never subscribed to groupthink and stupid self motivational slogans.

Anytime you hang out in a group that favors one candidate and is unrepresentative of the population as a whole, the rhetoric of many of the members of the majority will escalate.

Spending your time on this forum or in the state of MA means you're going to encounter a lot more shallow Obama supporters and intelligent McCain supporters, than, say, if you went down to Mississippi or Utah.  Remember where you are before you extrapolate dawg.

The irony is - I always expected Lunar to break for McCain in the end, and Walter to break for Obama.

Why?

To tell you the truth - I don't know... it's just how I pictured things turning out. It was probably Walter's support for Clinton that made me think of him (in my mind) as a Democrat's voter. I figured as a libertarian, you'd end up supporting McCain, as he's reasonably moderate in the Republican Party, but Obama is from the liberal wing of the Democrats - so I figured of the two, McCain's the more centrist. It was pretty much one of those sub-conscious things that you don't know the reason for until you sit down and think about them.

Ah, I've been in the tank for Obama since '04 and I care a lot more about social issues and foreign policy than economic issues.  I find a lot of economics to be circular - it's not that big of a deal either way to raise minimum wage since cost of living will go up roughly the same amount.  I'm upping my opinion of some senate Republicans recently, like McConnell, for their opinions on the bailout.

McCain's big trick is that he's really hawkish and likes preemptive warfare, which I find in poor taste.  Otherwise, he [was] great.

But I ramble.

Walter seems more attached to character/resume issues than ideology.
