      In 2012 I did, most of my friends at the time did.

      Was glad to vote for him in 08 tho, even tho I was in the military and we literally got lined up to have a senior officer tell us voting D was voting against giving all of us a pay raise.

      But by 2012…

      I voted for the least evil option and have in every general election ever since.

      Maybe you had no issues with him, but how is it surprising that some people felt let down by 2010, let alone 2012?

      You didn’t have any friends back then who were already disillusioned?

      I guess you might have just still been in school back then and weren’t paying attention. I know when I was a kid I thought Bill Clinton was great, it wasn’t till I grew up that I saw more than his MTV appearances or when he had “sexual relations” with an intern.

      I did learn that the coverup is worse than the crime though from all that.
