I am asking this because I am one of those who is doing much better than I was in 07. Unlike myself, who would vote for whoever was looking after my best interests, I know that there are those who would vote for the other guy no matter HOW Good they had it. Since Obama has not changed any social issues since being in office (IE gun control, right to life, gay marriage), Im wondering why the people who ARE doing better are still complaining. Im only speaking to those WHO ARE DOING BETTER. I know there are those who are not, and I already know why you are not happy. I was doing bad in the Bush years, and I get it, I really do.

Once again,if you are doing better but are still not going to vote for Obama, or even better yet, are compelled to vote for Romney, then I want to hear from you. One more rule, if you are voting just because he is Mormon and so are you...you don't really count in my mind.

It could be for moral reasons! And, even though people might be doing better, maybe they feel that the country is headed in the wrong direction?
Or maybe the policies in place now are not favorable for future growth?

I wonder how many people can say they are doing better since Bush left???
I doubt very many from the looks of the economy.

No way would I vote for anyone who swears that he will take us back to 2007. Are you kidding me ?

Yes, I am doing much better now then three years ago, be it because of Obama or not.

PS I am not voting for Obama either.

The few that are doing better are enjoying it at the expense of their children and grandchildren who will be stuck paying for Obama's deficit spending.
