My dad voted for McCain, but is probably voting for Obama.

I thought this was interesting. My dad is a strange person politically. Some of the things he says makes him seem like a Social-Democrat and he says Sweden, Norway, Denmark, etc. have the best system in the world and yet he considers himself fairly moderate. He liked Clinton a lot, voted against Bush both times, voted for McCain simply because he doesn't agree with Obama and now is probably voting for Obama simply because he can't stand Romney. My dad really does not like Obama, but he likes Romney even less. I'm just wondering if Mitt might cost the Republicans a lot of votes come November. He really wasn't a great choice, he just comes across as such an out of touch jerk.

they're headed toward irrelevancy if there is such a thing as justice in this world.
