.......Chelsey Dargis, 21, who is studying to be a teacher, voted in Metairie for Mr. Romney because she said she thought he would reach out to independents.
“I have Republican qualities, but I also agree with Democrats,” Ms. Dargis said, citing her approval of abortion rights and same-sex marriage. “I like Mitt Romney better because he once was a Democrat. He still has to have somewhat of the mind-set of a Democrat.”

And Netflix movies DON’T make you sick?
YIKES!
I take time to select what I hope will be meaningful movies that go against Hollywierd’s usual grain, and recently I’ve been right. Surprisingly, “The Ides of March” was a look into the nasty campaign of a democrat presidental run, starring and directed by libtard George Clooney.
And yes, the news is getting harder to take every passing day. Without the stock market reports, I would not watch them at all, and then it is from Stuart Varney, who is very palatable.
Gee, we keep hearing Rick has no money - another lie. Negative about Newt? That's slick Rick 'doing it for the team', again, and playing it out as it was designed for him to do. That's why his supporters consider him 'good' and why he wasn't vetted (YET).
More like Charlatan Rick.
Who lied?
I dropped NetFlix when I learned that they're heavy on homo (porno) flicks.
Yep, we watch Stuart Varney here too! Fox Business News, but not Fox!
Yes! A mine field and you’re right about the homosexual movies. A whole category of those. I’m going to see if this town’s Blockbuster store is still open and switch to their service if it is due to the very poor sevrive from Netflix. I am still waiting to see “The Help” -— 15 weeks! Thank you for the title to the one movie I will put it in my “que”.
Mitt Romney was never a registered Democrat.
The problem is that those types don’t donate, they don’t knock doors, they don’t make phone calls, they don’t show up at events, they don’t try to convince their friends to vote for the candidate, and worse of all, many will likely swing her vote and vote for Obama during the general.
I just watched a Danish movie called “After The Wedding”
available on Netflix. What a wonderfully produced and acted movie. It’s an interesting story line and I highly recommend it! I needed a distraction from all the (bad) news as well.

No convictions voters being wooed by the No Convictions candidate. Perfect.
Santorum took 13; Romney took 7 [Full numbers at top of this LINKED source page]
