(31,997 posts)she is very quiet tho and never talks about politics.
I had noticed she had been liking some of my FB posts that are positive for POTUS
I texted her this morning and she texted back and told me her vote.
However, she is married to a Baptist preacher's son so she said not to talk about her vote in front of her hubby....Come to find out, he voted Obama as well because of insurance!!!

and their reason is not given based on their political views but based on their personal lives. "we don't know what we would do if this is taken away from us".
Romney made a huge mistake in saying he would repeal it. i think he might have been better off giving his own plan and saying he wont try to repeal anything but he will try to get whatever he supports through. not that it would have helped him much.
