Thread: Who Are You Voting For and Why?

I will Vote Virgil Goode Constitution Party

Obama is destroying this country and the GOP has given the middle finger to conservatives and the Christian right

To me, it appears that the Obama campaign may be the ones feeling the heat, scrambling to garner the Hispanic vote this may pick up.

Savvy move on their part, but disingenuous just the same.

Emphasis disingenuous, both of them. They had years to fix this mess, only to wait until right before the election to garner points. I hope it backfires on both of them.

Well I won't be voting for Obama. I was pretty confident that this country could survive 4 years of liberal lunacy, not so sure about 8. We really need a guy in there who understands economics.

My blog

I'm either writing someone in (and I have a list: Ron Paul, Jon Huntsman, Bernie Sanders, Sherrod Brown, Tom Harkin, etc.), staying home, or just for kicks and giggles voting for Bush/Obama, just to stick it to ignorant righties that can't even give legitimate reasons to be against him.

Of course, he's pissed me off for being worse than Bush (and I never thought that possible) on foreign policy by doing the same crap.

I'd vote Socialist Party, but I don't think TN carries their ballot.

I see you a frustrated just like many of us.

Ideologically, I would vote for Gary Johnson (with the exception of his ridiculous VAT proposal). Reality, Romney. At the age of 43, this will be the third time I will vote Republican in an otherwise Democratic and Independent background. McCain in 08, Christie in 09 and Romney in 12. There will be no USA in 2015 if Obama is elected again. Got plenty of ammo either way. Bring it on.

Obama has had his four years, the economy is poor, unemployment is high, hope for millions of Americans is waning... I'm for trying something different.

Will it prove to be better in the end? I don't really know, but I do know if you have a bad tire on your auto, you don't continue to drive hoping it will get better. You pull to the roadside, and put a different one on.

And so you're voting for the party that controls half the government now, and controlled other parts before Obama?

Newsflash: in your analogy, YOU are the person continuing to drive on the bad tire. By continuing to support our horrible two party system.

The entire Democratic Party stands for "more Obama" and that is wrong for America.

Voting for anybody else is wasting my vote. May as well stay home.

Explain why voting for someone who does not represent your ideals,but has (according to polls) what you consider a realistic chance of winning is NOT "wasting your vote," but voting for someone who matches your ideals, but whom you think can't win - only because you and others like you refuse to vote for them - IS "wasting your vote."

Frustrated doesn't even begin to describe it.

I am voting for President Obama, he shows true leadership and always has.
With any luck Congress will once again be in Democrats hands and that will ensure the survival of the nation.
I fear that if the republican gain control again, our economy can't survive it.
All we need to do is look to Europe to see what the right wing will do to this country, only it will be worse here.
We will have another republican depression, one that I fear we can't get out of.
America will be the 2 class 3rd world nation the top 1% wishes it to be.
