I didn't vote for a corporations-are-people, anything-to-get-elected, everything-for-profit vulture capitalist, however.

Ooops, did that give my choice away?

I'm voting for Conolly in the 11th for love of the state and country.

And I'm voting No on Question #1, for love of the Virginia taxpayer!

are not mutually exclusive.

I wouldn't be so inclined to feel some revenge if I hadn't had to listen to the "Obama is a Kenyan Socialist Muslim who wants to take your guns away, abort your babies and impose Sharia Law on the country" for the past 4 years.

Also, what is the meme that a vote for Obama is a vote for revenge? I don't get that, revenge for what in their minds?

Students, retirees, military personnel, people with disabilities, and people who are underemployed. I believe in hard work and effort, but when that fails we have to have a safety net. Also I think people should be able to retire before they are too broken down to enjoy their twilight years. I believe college students shouldn't have to pay for college, but since they do I believe they should be able to get Pell Grants and loans. I believe that if someone has been in the military or is currently serving and they need any kind of assistance that should be provided. And people with disabilities shouldn't have to worry about starving.
