Go Vote Young Man...

Jul 20, 2008 23:09

Coming off the back of what has been a horrible week (work, car issues including a big chunk of rubble hitting me on I66) today made me stop. I received my voter registration card. Brand new (hey, I've only been an American for 23 days) and it made me glow inside. Now... I know who will get my senate vote, but for President?...

PLEASE tell me you're thinking of voting for some third party candidate, and not mccain?

I'm thinking of not voting on the Presidential vote and instead just voting for Mark Warner for Senate. I like Obama a lot, he's just my type of guy socially - pro-choice particularly, but fiscally, not so much...

I'm one of those awful moderates I'm afraid *grin*

Thanks! I'll be embracing it for the first time, but I know you've been doing the same for a decade at least! *grin*

Just as long as you're not thinking of voting for McCain! (As free said *smile*)

No. His positions on choice and gender equality, his anti-queer bias and the current conflict in Iraq make a vote for him impossible. I'm sure he's a good man deep down, but he brings nothing new from the current administration that we have...
