I didn't even do anything to try and convince her how to vote, just told her to look at the candidate positions and not consider the party. She went through the ballot and candidate profiles the other night while watching TV.

She just sent me a text message about how she "never in her life even considered voting for a Republican and here she was voting all R today." I'm kind of stunned actually, but apparently, my work is done here.

I would say get her a coat, but you need to do the opposite of putting clothes on that lady!

Well I guess there is hope. I just had to turn off Fox News because Shep was orgasming due to Obama speaking in Florida.

Looking through the candidates the R's all had goals and specific measures for what they wanted to accomplish. All of the Democrats just had the national talking points from the party in their profile. From national through the state reps. they all had the same message. She said there was no substance there and simply didn't trust that kind of groupthink.

The second part of it is that we have two younger kids and she has become much more financially and economically focused over the past four years or so. The deeper into the subject she gets there, the more she has been trending R.

Our district is NC-2, so it's pretty solidly red and has been growing at a massive rate. I think she sees the results and the success of the area, relates it to pretty much all republican reps in the area and doesn't want to change course.
