I voted for Romney this morning in Orlando. He wasn’t my first choice, but I voted for him as I think he has the best chance to beat McCain.

I spent the past weekend up in the panhandle (near Eglin AFB) visiting my family. Most people I came in contact with were against McCain even though they were for the most part retired military (including my dad’s best friend who is a retired General).

I was dismayed at work today to find that a friend of mine went to see McCain speak here in Orlando this weekend and was impressed enough to talk several other friends into voting for him this morning. I’m really bummed because if I had been at work yesterday, I think that I could have talked them out of it. They were all going to vote for Romney. My friend just happened to be eating dinner at a restaurant close to where McCain was speaking and stopped to listen to him. Dang it!

McCain is running for his ego.

Romney is running for his sons future

I cannot believe McKook was able to put a coherent sentence together let alone convince someone to vote for him.

I heard some news clips of him and he sounded awful. I bet the news had to look high and low to find a clip where he sounded somewhat sane.

It is very possible that they went ahead and voted for Romney anyway. They just didn’t want to get into a political discussion.
