Not saying I voted for him or not, just kind of funny that someone else cares who I will vote for.

I don't know about where y'all vote but here you vote in a little booth thingy and no one else can see what you are doing.

Does anyone here tell their spouse who to vote for? If so, why? And if you do do they do it?

If you watched the debates last night, you would know that answer.

And I don't know who I'm voting for yet. I was leaning toward Huckabee, but last night he seemed kind of overmatched in terms of knowledge by Romney and Giuliani. I'm struggling to get past Giuliani's personal life issues and Romney just seems a little too polished to me.

I let my husband know who I vote for (if he's interested), but we don't always vote exactly alike. Being one flesh does not mean we have to be mirror images.

In the primary probably Mike Huckabee. In the election in November, Guiliani.

I think that the surge by Huckabee will be short-lived as also the surge by Obama.

It will be Guiliani vs HillBill in November. Can't wait for those debates.

No but I honestly couldn't imagine my wife and I voting for a different president. We are in fact, one flesh, same morals and political guidelines.

Confidential? I think everyone should stand up for what they believe in.
Whether it's voting for the president or voting for superintendent. If a person doesn't it's probably a sign of them not being secure in who they voted for but remember we can't control everything the president does......so we can't be faulted for everything that goes wrong.

Most of my issues are more to do with State government than National. My husband has his ideals and I have mine, sometimes they are the same. But not always. But for president we usually vote for the same person, he just doesn't know it. And I don't really think he cares if I tell him or not. It has never been an issue. I always stand up for what I believe in especially in the way I vote.
