8. I work
in a local government building, I'm not directly involved in their politics but it allows me to take part in some interesting conversations. I have also had the opportunity to talk with the folks who "did everything right" and now find themselves on the side of the road. I actually have spoken to 3 republicans who have decided to vote Democrat this election. The interesting part is their mannerisms, one fella almost whispers the word republican like he is confessing a sin, lol.
The point I am attempting to make though is that it really is a sign of the times when registered voters are jumping ship, men and women near retirement age who have voted for the far right since their first election are now second guessing the position that they themselves have taken as well as the "elected" officials they have supported.
