2008: McCain (Romney in the primaries, she moved to NJ where undeclareds can vote in primaries)

Dad (Republican 1968-2008; Undeclared 2008-present)
Has voted for every Republican presidential candidate.  Voted for Huckabee in the 2008 primary and I cannot figure out why.  He would've voted for Rudy if he was still in.  He wouldn't vote for Romney because he thought he was a faker.  But I don't know why he picked Huckabee over McCain.  In hindsight, he wishes Romney would've won.   

Mom's mom (Democrat 1932-2007)
1932: Roosevelt
1936: Roosevelt
1940: Roosevelt
1944: Roosevelt

1980: Reagan
1984: Reagan
1988: Bush
1992: Bush
1996: Clinton
2000: Gore
2004: Bush

Mom's brother (Republican 1962-present)
Voted for the Republican presidential candidate in every election except 1968, where he voted for Wallace (he lived in an Italian neighborhood, neighboring a black neighborhood.  Racial  tensions were high and his vote was a product of that.  Thankfully, he no longer holds that animosity).

Sister #1 (Republican 1995-present)
1996: Dole
2000: didn't vote
2004: Bush
2008: McCain (McCain in primary)

Sister #2 (Undeclared)
2000: didn't vote
2004: Bush
2008: didn't vote

Me (Republican 2001-present)
2004: Bush
2008: McCain (voted for McCain in the primary) 

The rest of my family refuses to vote and doesn't trust any politician for the most part.

Gore/Kerry/McCain? Interesting.

Yeah, my dad is an interesting independent.

Maybe he just really respects combat veterans.  Though I don't know if Gore is technically considered to be a combat vet, at least he went overseas.
