Did you decide your party on the following criteria?

[Schadenfroh]

It seems like everyone i know, when the topic goes to why they chose their party/candidate always have one side of the following issues and choses which one closes matches there opinions, amazing how 4 issues can determine ones candidate....


1. Pro-Choice / Pro-Life
2. How much they support (or do not support) religion in there actions / speeches
3. Gay rights (or lack there of)
4. Crap about automatic weapons and RPGs


do you use these 4 to determine your candidate? I know most of the people i know do. They also seem to be the main topics in this forum.


or better yet, did you agree or disagree with some of these initially and as you spent time thinking of yourself as a member of a said party, begin to think along the same lines of the party in nearly all issues?

No I look who has the better Tie over the issues that effect my life.

 

[BarneyFife]

I don't care about either of those four issues but it seems that many people do.

I wouldn't vote for someone of substandard intelligence...period.

This is my first time voting...we'll see if the smart/dumb candidate is so easy to distinguish in 4 years.

I didn't use any of those 4 criteria. I choose the Conservative party for many other reasons.
