Who would you have voted for in in past presidential elections?

[FloridaRepublican]

Umm duh.  It's so funny to watch you guys overreact and trip over yourselves on this board.  I can't believe you actually thought I was serious.

Keep telling yourself that kid. I knew you were mega bullshitting the whole time, thus why I called your bluff:

This kid has got to be joking, or he's prophetman.

Do you want a cookie or something?  I told you I was joking.

I knew you were joking and frankly, nobody is impressed. All you did was waste your own time making a pointless joke like that. Everybody is laughing, not with you, but at your desperate attempt to be an attention whore joke poster.

I LOVE IT!  Keep blasting me, it's funny.

Okay!

Is that the best you've got?

XD You're funny dude.  I'm impressed.

[Senator Ben]

So, you're 16 and you support Strom Thurmond?  Seriously?

[??????????]

So, you're 16 and you support Strom Thurmond?  Seriously?

Does this thread ask who you would vote for with modern circumstances or w/out hindsight?

I don't believe it has been specified; I don't feel like looking, though.

If I did, what's it to you?  Today it's socially unacceptable to be anti-Civil Rights.  So my opinion doesn't really matter.  I'm a conservative Northwestern Floridian, what do you expect?

[??????????]

I'm a conservative Northwestern Floridian, what do you expect?

Not to support Charlie Crist.

Not to support Charlie Crist.

Touché.  But I like Crist.  He's done a very good job as governor.  And although Rubio is a conservative, I'd support Crist.

[President Mitt]

Are my ears deceiving me? Did he just say he did not support Civil Rights?

Are my ears deceiving me?  Did someone not hear what I said?
Let me put it to you this way.  I.  Support.  Civil.  Rights.  I.  Am.  A.  Pathological.  Kidder.

Wow.  Way to misquote me.  I definitely said "Today it's socially unacceptable to be anti-Civil Rights."  And way to leave the Republican Party.

[Communists For McCain]

Guys floridarepub is friggin kidding. Did you guys not see the little fake insultfest between me and him (or is it she)?
Besides he is so right, Civil Rights are overrated, what about Prostitute Rights? I'd rather have hookers to bang than an equal and just society.

That's what I'M saying.  Lol this is so entertaining.

...in every election from 1904-2004 (in both primary and general from 1952-2004).

I think I would have been for the R nominee from 1904 - 1928, with the  exception of voting for Rosevelt in 1912.

From 1932 to now I would have gone for the D nominee with the exception of Einsenhower --  I like Ike. 

Too lazy to look up the primary candidates to pick.

[Mint]

Well, now I'm not sure I'd bother voting in a lot of these. But I can tell you if I had to do things over again I'd vote for Barr over the lesser of two evils last year (i.e. McCain). That said I'm optimistic about the future in the long term even if the short term is going to be hell due to decades of greed and short sighted policies IMO.
