The "I Voted For Obama" Thread

[justKel]

Yes I voted. #97 at my polling place.

I am registered Libertarian but I do not like the LP's pick of Bob Barr. If they don't come up with a better candidate next election I am jumping ship. To where, I do not know. I only like Democrats slightly more than I like Republicans and I don't like either very much.

Yes, I am a Libertarian too and voted Obama........

[HipKat]

Without a doubt!!!!!

Count myself for an Obama vote, I really think he is the person that we need to change this country around. I am not just talking, economy wise or any of the immediate things being talked about. but to finally turn this country around and bring back our world wide respect...because lets face it we have lost alot of respect in the past I would say 6 years.

I need a sentence or two why you voted for who...

[Smiley]

I was number 43 at my plloing place when I voted for Obama. Normally I am # 16 for presidential races and #3 or 4 on non-presidential elections

[Smiley]

I voted for Obama as I like his idea of making people, who earn over
$250,000, pay their fair share. I don't get a break, why should they get a break. Also his stand on the war. If McCain gets in, our social security would be privitized. Could you imagine what would happen if he did that and the market took a hit like it did recently? It scares me too death

I voted for Obama. 382 I believe in my place.

In fact, for the first time ever...I voted mostly on one line: the Independence Party.

Voted for Humiston. He is by far the best choice. Higgins has turned into a fool.

25% of the population pay 86% of the taxes. How much more of their "fair share" do you want them to pay?

Yes, dad.

I am pro choice and pro marriage for all. McCain is pro life and waffles on the marriage issue. He won't give a clear statement.

I also believe that just because someone serves the country in the military, it does not make them a better candidate. In fact, it means zero to me. I've met quite of military people who make me nervous just being around them. Likewise, I've met plenty of military people who are amazing. Just like real life. So to me, McCain being in the military, as well as being a POW, has no effect on my feelings towards him. He centered so much of his campaign on how he was a hero. Plenty of other people are heroes. That doesn't make them suited to run a country either.

Although both candidates had some good ideas, I felt I agreed with Obama more often than not. The last debate sealed the deal for me. McCain looked and acted flustered, and I wondered if he could stand up to the pressure of being president.
