Just wondering if anyone out there has stories from those who voted for Obama and now regret it. I realize that the far left will support him to the end, but I would like to think that perhaps those who may be more middle of the road may have regrets.
These are the people that actually believe the spewings of Harry Reid and Nanzi Pelosi.
You're overthinking it. They are idiots, period....
In a competition between liberal and liberal lite, liberal wins. Wonder if we'll ever see another conservative as a Republican nominee?
YES! I have a close friend who is quite a bit younger than I am … ahem. He is a 34-year old guy who was a low-information voter.
I introduced him to Rush Limbaugh and most importantly Mark Levin, The Great One! He is not only extremely upset that he voted for Obama but he has completely transformed into a Constitutional Conservative.
He owns all of Mark Levin’s books and keeps up with Mark’s radio show every single day. He has signed up for many online conservative causes and petitions and, in fact, forwards many links to me to do the same in addition to passing along pertinent causes and information to me.
He purchased a beautiful American flag (importantly, a made-in-America flag), a special version showing the original 13 colonies that he proudly displays outside his home. He is about to purchase an Israeli flag in support of Israel.
It is a joy to behold. He gets it and he’s become a knowledgeable and passionate conservative voice. He is involved! It’s a beautiful thing!
I think mostly they are keeping their mouths shut about it.
1. Cut spending and the deficit
2. Stop illegal immigration
I argued with her for hours that there was zero chance of Obama doing either of those, and that in fact the deficit would skyrocket under Obama and that he would push for amnesty. Both of which turned out to be true.
I have not met a single person who regrets voting for him. Most who voted for him were oblivious to begin with, and they remain so. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil! I have relatives whose home is a virtual shrine to Obama & family. They even have photos of the entire family on their refrigerator. I hold no hope that these relatives of mine will ever see the truth. They really do believe that Obama is the greatest president our country has ever had.
“I introduced him to Rush Limbaugh ...... He is not only extremely upset that he voted for Obama but he has completely transformed into a Constitutional Conservative.”
Sounds like what happened to me in 199o (no Levin available to me back then, unfortunately).
Don't give Obama any ideas,
That's what I'm hearing. McCain was just plain scary, and Romney didn't come across as anything but the corporate raider who wouldn't stand up to Obama.
The "buyers remorse" belongs to us conservatives who, beginning with George 1, have been sold voting for the "lesser of two evils". Maybe we got what we deserved for voting for a kinder, gentler form of evil.
And you know what? It's going to be President Warren or President Corey Booker if the next Republican nominee doesn't inspire with the constitutional conservative vision of how to save the US.
>>He purchased a beautiful American flag (importantly, a made-in-America flag)
Lowe’s had a bunch when I was through the other day. Mine was in rough shape, so I bought one. I need to get the old one to the Boy Scouts for retirement.
Yikes! Good point!
A military friend confessed that he voted for Bambi the first time but not the second, he saw the light. He is very angry about the foxhole pink slips.
“Maybe they meant they had regrets but would never vote for a Republican (or at least for Romney). “
They’ll never vote Republican - especially my Jewish friends. Scary thing is they have lots of money that they invest in the candidates and said they’d do it again.
Makes no sense, none.
bust a gut laughing!
I think mostly they are keeping their mouths shut about it.

Those on FR who poor mouthed Romney sure are quiet.....McStain is forgotten as well.
They’ll never admit it - believing themselves more intelligent and compassionate than everyone else, it would destroy their fragile egos to ever acknowledge they made such a mistake as not seeing this fraud coming.....
