So... I've switched my candidate to Joe

I've had this rattling about my head since super tuesday... I voted for Bernie and if I was sent back in time, i'd do it again. But I think the direction is clear, Trump is very much afraid of Joe and I believe he will win easily.

I have no regrets voting for Bernie in the primary. I'll hand in my ballot for Joe in the general with a smile and the same full confidence.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

She grew up here in the OC. She was very upset with the Dixie Chicks when Natalie Maines spoke up about Bush leading up to the Iraq invasion. So she has proven her conservative allegiance. But when she asked about Warren, I told her I think she is going to advise Biden. She was happy to hear that and said she doesnt like Bernie. It was nice to be in political agreement for the first time ever.

I hope all is well with you and yours. Things are good here, I really love Colorado and living in the Boulder area... Heh, sane people instead of the deep red crazy I lived in Ohio.

I do feel good about Joe, he is a great example of a man and i'm looking forward to having him as President.

Ring another one up.

Hey, none of us have had their first choices win every time. Biden was mine in 2008 and again this year, so I guess 1 outta 2 ain't bad for him. Sure waited long enough...hopefully it will have been worth the wait.

I wasn't thrilled with Hillary in 2016, and yet when I got my ballot I filled it out and had it in the mailbox the very next morning. That's pretty impressive for a world-class procrastinator like myself...but Trump is a real good motivator in a very bad sorta way.

I didn’t choose until it was down to two (Tulsi Gabbard isn’t really a consideration)

Its the vocal hostile minority that is getting the headlines that pisses off many of us. Hopefully they are a very small minority.
