in general, i do find obama supporters to be obnoxious, idealists and shallow. and ive never much cared for people who blindly follow the in-crowd. ive certainly never subscribed to groupthink and stupid self motivational slogans.
Anytime you hang out in a group that favors one candidate and is unrepresentative of the population as a whole, the rhetoric of many of the members of the majority will escalate.
Spending your time on this forum or in the state of MA means you're going to encounter a lot more shallow Obama supporters and intelligent McCain supporters, than, say, if you went down to Mississippi or Utah. Remember where you are before you extrapolate dawg.
The irony is - I always expected Lunar to break for McCain in the end, and Walter to break for Obama.
Why?
To tell you the truth - I don't know... it's just how I pictured things turning out. It was probably Walter's support for Clinton that made me think of him (in my mind) as a Democrat's voter. I figured as a libertarian, you'd end up supporting McCain, as he's reasonably moderate in the Republican Party, but Obama is from the liberal wing of the Democrats - so I figured of the two, McCain's the more centrist. It was pretty much one of those sub-conscious things that you don't know the reason for until you sit down and think about them.
