Well, the Repubicans are probably going to nominate someone who loves Jesus, the very rich and American nationalism, so I'll probably end up voting for Obama.
I'm hoping Romney gets the nomination, since I don't think he'll repeal Obamacare (which I think is a lot better than nothing; although I would have liked a public option, or real universal health care instead). Romney says he will now, but I think that talk will change once he is up for the general election. Also, he is not crazy about hating Muslims and blurring the lines between church and state (being a Mormon, part of a once repressed minority religion, gives him some wisdom on that front).
I can live with Romney... he still loves Jesus, the very rich and American nationalism, but at least he's not super crazy about it, he looks good and he's from Massachusetts -- a great state. If Rick Perry or Michele Bachmann win I'll freak out, but I don't think that's likely: even if either of them get the nomination, I think a significant portion of moderates will see them as crazy and vote for Obama as the lesser of two evils.
