Many reasons, but in any event, the preponderance of them are now experiencing Buyers Remorse. (Hey, I suffered BR about six months after voting for that dud, Jimmy Carter - - the last time I ever voted RAT).

Correct me if I’m wrong here,but it seems 40% of the populace did’nt vote leaving approx 32% for HO and 27% for Gov Palin with McCain coming in at about 1%.And more than likely 15% of the folks who voted for HO now regret it.If I read right the 52% or so that HO got was based on 100% of the people that voted.Just seems I read that somewhere.

First, too many O bow ma voters have no idea what Socialism means, as shown by the Sean Hannity 'man on the street Thursday' interviews ... O bow ma voters are largely uninformed and ignorant.

Every socialist/communist vote counted three times.

I no longer have any confidence in our countries voting system unless they bring in purple ink for the finger.
