I like Obama, so this is obviously not my personal thought-process.

It looks like congress will be even more strongly Democratic next session. So the question might be: do you want generally-Democratic principles supported or thwarted?

I would love to do that but the Dem party has been taken over by radicals and the issues I cared about are hardly discussed and easily sold out. The GOP, there are some strong issues that I like their stances on but over all they still are not close to getting my support.
When it comes to voting for the President this year... no matter how I try to look for a positive, I can't find one. I have stated for a long time, it comes to who I fear less. And even that is starting to become blurry.
