depends who the Republican is. If it's Sarah Palin or Bobby Jindal, I'll drag myself out to the voting booth for Obama regardless of his performance. If it's some inoffensive Bob Dole-esque character I probably won't both voting unless there's some strong financial incentive for me to do so.
If the next four years are a rollicking good time under Obama, I might also vote for him as a sign of affirmation. Much like what I would have done with Bill Clinton in 1996. It's possible, perhaps even likely, that this could be the case given that Obama's first term would essentially entail my college years. Whereas Bush's Presidency included my H/S years, which were undoubtedly the worst time of my life. So, naturally, I'll always have a negative opinion of the "Bush Years" and a positive opinion of the "Clinton years" because my life was so much better during the latter.
