I hope there aren't any women in your life counting on your bravery.

And listen, I really hope that your candidate wins. I will really be happy for you because I know you will be happy. I will be equally happy that I didn't vote for him.

LOL! A friend sent this to me today.

"I found a series of e-mails today between myself and a John Kerry supporter dating back to 2004. In one of the e-mails, the John Kerry supporter said: "If we don't elect Kerry and Bush gets a second term, we can kiss America as we know it, goodbye. Our country cannot stand another four years of Bush."

After reading that statement, I went to my window and looked out on to the lawn of my apartment building. Yep. I'm still in Virginia, which, the last time I checked, was one of 50 United States. And as I recall, Bush did serve another four years in the White House.

Like Mitt Romney supporters of today, that John Kerry supporter was using FEAR MONGERING and LIES to try and get his candidate elected, because nothing else was working.

It didn't work then, and it's NOT going to work now.

Sorry, fellas. GAME OVER..."

I love how everyone is saying that if you don't for Mr Romney that you are voting for Mr Obama. Not just people on here but people at my church as well.
You saying that is still not going to change my vote. Just as you feel strongly that you should vote for Mr Romney, I feel strongly that I cant not vote for Mr Romney (or Mr Obama). I have the right as an american to vote for who I feel will best run our country.

Kathrynrl13, you have the right to vote for whomever you want or to abstain from voting if you wish.

Why do you think there won't be an America left if Obama is reelected? What do you think will happen?

I have a wife, a daughter and two sons who are counting on a country that isn't driving off the fiscal cliff. I will vote for Romney because another four years of Obama will be vastly different than four years of Romney. You don't think so, and that your right. I'm not hoping to win simply to win and raspberry the opposition. Having Obama leave the WH is the win here for me. In my lifetime the best years economically were the 12 years under Reagan/Bush and the last six years of Clinton with a Republican majority in the Congress. The policies were conservative in nature for the most part with a focus on lower taxes, job growth and smaller government. I absolutely know Obama will never give us that. with Romney there's a better chance.

My fears concerning Obama in 2008 were absolutely fulfilled these past four years and in many was worsened. So I'm not "fear mongering". I'm not "spreading discreditable, misrepresentative information designed to induce fear and apprehension." I am communicating my honest concerns about another Obama term. It wouldn't be fair to accuse you of "Ignorance Peddling" simply because I disagree with your reasons for voting third party. I believ you're being homes about your views. As am I.
