Fair question."...I'm curious, Kondor...I can understand the first vote for Obama...you like most of the rest of America didn't really know what you were getting because Barry basically ran on a vague promise of "Hope & Change" with nothing fleshed out...but what were you thinking the second time around? Did you see something there that I didn't? No offense but I'm baffled by why so many people doubled down with one of the more ineffective leaders I've ever seen in office."
An even more accurate question might have been: Were you thinking when you voted for Obumble in 2008?
The answer to both questions is: "To tell the truth, I'm not sure."
Mittens struck me as arrogant and phoney and uninspiring and unable to project a believable plan for recovery and forward progress, and his ultra-arrogant '47%' comment was the clincher in my mind - giving lie to the idea of him being A Man of the People.
I ended-up voting for the Largely Lackluster rather than the Mostly Malevolent.
Mind you, I held my nose when I walked into that polling booth, but, there it is.
Not a shining or inspiring or even entirely logical moment in my own history of candidate evaluations, but the truth of the matter is that I was rather disgusted by both, and voted for what (at that frozen moment in time) struck me as the (slightly) less disgusting of the two.
Like I said, I repent of my sin.
