2012: Obama
What made you decide to vote for McCain and then Obama?
In 2008, I doubted whether it would make any difference which of them was elected when it came to fixing the economy and I liked McCain better on foreign policy.
In 2012, if Mitt hadn't been an utter tool I might have supported him. Indeed, because I thought we needed a period of undivided government, I really did want to support him, but he convinced me he just was not competent to be President, I also didn't care for any of the third party choices available to me, so that left either Obama or a blank ballot.
