2004 - Kerry
2008 - Obama
2012 - Johnson
This year? Still haven't decided for sure. I'm not happy with any of them being POTUS. I'm in Missouri though, so it doesn't really matter. Trump will win comfortably here.
Hugo, thanks for posting this info. It's refreshing to see credible information without the Poli Board filter. Have you ever listened to the Keepin' It 1600 podcast? It's got a definite liberal slant - the guys who run it are all former Obama staffers. But it's funny as hell, and a pretty honest look at things. If you haven't checked them out, you can find them on twitter - they're doing 2 podcasts a weeks right now, and they're worth the time. The debate recaps in particular.

Cruz got a ton of votes, the 2nd most, in a year that saw the most votes ever cast in a GOP primary. but you keep talking about nobody likes him simply because some unlikable politicians like Graham don't like him.

Go look at RCP again. Clearly shows HRC up in PA by a 4.4 average. Time for you to go root for a winner and dump the dunce act.

I don't support abortions. I support a woman's right to choose. Whereas you support a walking POS that thinks it's his right to walk up to woman and grab them in any manner "it" wants to. Do you have a daughter? A mother? Niece?

I voted Bush in 2008 and Johnson in 2012. She voted Bush in 2004 and Romney in 2012.

No they aren't. They're criminals who couldn't tell you the most simple platforms of any candidate.

Here's a link. They're pretty funny. Since they aren't "journalists" they don't try to hide that they have a liberal bias, so you know what you're getting. They're all former Obama staffers - a media spokesman, 2 speechwriters. I think you'd be entertained if nothing else. Once a week or so they do a live session that's like comedy hour.

I am so fed up with our political party BS that I don't see a reason to vote in anything not local going forward. There are no good options and I'd rather sit out

Sweet... I listened to some, not bad. I'll give it a whirl on one of my long drives.
Thanks for the link

Pretty good article from a republican woman who feels the party has abandoned her.

I was first drawn to the Republican Party as an 18-year-old at a liberal university. The party’s appeal wasn’t about barring Muslims, arming our enemies with nuclear weapons or joking about sexual assault. I didn’t become a conservative because someone told me to hate liberals, or to blame people who didn’t look like me for my problems.
I became a conservative because of words like “self-reliance” and “individualism,” because it actually seemed the more optimistic philosophy. Conservatism measured compassion by how much you gave, not by how much you told other people to give. Conservatism believed that individuals, not bureaucracies, produced the best solutions. And conservatism saw American democracy as a beacon of hope to share with the world’s oppressed, not something to apologize for.
Now that I’m a mother, those ideals matter more to me than ever. In the era of Donald Trump, it’s hard to argue to the women of America that the Republican Party deserves their vote this year. But we must return to our aspirational roots if we’re going to have a party left at all.

Someone famous (I think a former British Prime Minister, but I'm too lazy to look it up right now) once said something to this effect: "If you're not a liberal when you're young, you have no soul; if you're not a conservative when you're old, you have no mind." Disraeli maybe?
I don't know. I know I'm growing more conservative as I get older for sure. Actually more libertarian. The thing is in this election...I think HRC may actually be more conservative on some things than trump. He's a con man, a charlatan. He will say whatever he thinks people want to hear as long as it helps him. He's all about himself first, and screw everyone else. Clinton is corrupt, and I don't like her. BUT, I think she is more center left than progressive. There isn't a conservative candidate running, except maybe McMullin. I know I won't vote for Trump, I can't stand him and would be afraid and completely embarrassed for him to be the POTUS. But I still don't know who I will vote for.
