Why Romney, cause he's handsome?


I would say that women voted for Bush in 04, and maybe Romney, just maybe.

Upper middle class couple living somewhere in the tristate area of New York. Husband works in business and generally votes Republican on economic issues. Wife is a creative freelancer more left leaning who only voted Romney in 2012 out of anger at Obamacare causing her insurance premiums to skyrocket.

Mitt & Ann Romney would be the logical answer.

I have a very hard time imagining what a Kerry-Obama-Romney-Clinton voter would be like.

The husband is a Republican and the wife is a Democrat.

I don't think Ann Romney is a Democrat, and I also don't think Mitt voted for Hillary in 2016.

They're from.....North Carolina. The wife is a teacher, and the husband is...a lawyer? They're both moderates, but she leans liberal and he leans conservative. After the recession they didnt like the Republicans, but the husband chose not to vote since he believed Obama was too liberal for his tastes. In 2012 they liked how Romney was a "business Republican" and she was undecided until Election Day. In 2016 they were both disgusted by Trump.

Yes, Kerry is the vote that really doesn't fit here.  If she's a moderate Dem leaner with a neocon bent,
Clinton-Gore-Bush-Obama-Romney-Clinton would make more sense.

Or some sort of single issue voter. Someone generally liberal who either had an extreme dislike for Obamacare or maybe thought Obama wasn't hawkish or pro-Israel enough.
