I split my vote - o8 for president and GOP for my congressman, state senator and representative.
Reasons:
1. Romney is 0.01%. He is paying less than 15% income tax(all capital gain) on income of 20+mil and I'm paying almost twice of that. He is proposing 0% tax on capital gain. Feds will get their money - so most likely will be from us. There is no way I would vote for a 0.01%ter.
2. Social issues - GOP just too wacky. They want small government. But they want to tell women what they should do with their bodies (abortion, contraceptive issues), who should/should not marry to who (gay marriage). If that is not government's intrusion of private life (big brother), I dont know what it is. Plus immigraton issue.
3. I live in a deep-blue big state. Our state fiscal condition is in toilet. Dems have been in chareg so long and have no fiscal responsibilities. I want some GOPs in the state senate and house to provide check-balance to free-spending dems.
