Sorry Not enough room to add ‘Other’ (independent, Green, write-in and etc.), so excluding ‘Other’; How ‘would’ and/or ‘do’ you lean between the Republican and Democrat Parties? However, it is Okay to note on your reply if leanings checked in the Poll is second to ‘Other’.
It would also be interesting if you’d include Highest Schooling [Grade: High School, College/University, etc.) you’ve completed.

When I was in my early voting years I would have voted Obama. That is before I grew up and leaned about personal responsibility and self sacrifice for others. I didn't have a very good biblical worldview back then. I allowed college professors and those in my work field to overcome my ability to discern Godly wisdom.

I chose leaning towards McCain/Palin, although I really don't like either of the candidates this election. Although if I was forced to vote right now it would definitely be McCain and not Obama.

I'm 32 voting for McCain/Palin.
8 Years ago I probably would have voted for Obama. September 11, 2001 changed the face of the world in my eyes (they were finally opened). I remember on that morning thinking to myself "thank God Bush won the election" and thinking "what a queer thought that was". My whole view of politics changed on that day, the things I thought were so important before diminished and became petty.

I'm 67 and leaning towards McCain/Palin. I completed 9th grade, but higher education wasn't the golden ring of ultimate goals; morality, a man;s word was his bond, personal responsibility, doing an honest days work for an honest wage --- these were more important than schooling/education. Learning trades, skills, crafts, and using our talents were more than getting an education to flip burgers at Micky D's -- because one is too over qualified/educated for the jobs trained/skilled in that are no longer available.

hmm i didn't put my education level in my post... so here it is:
I have over 120 credit hours in college. I do not have my bachelor's degree because of a MAJOR major change... most of my old hours became irrelevant. Slowly but surely working towards my secondary education (mathematics) degree.

Ah, yes, how times and things have changed! I've got two years on you, have some college, no degree, but have worked as a non-degreed engineer - that doesn't happen anymore, to my knowledge.
Before McCain picked Sarah Palin, I was going to hold my nose and vote for him. I was hoping, all along, that he would pick her, but I really didn't think he would. Now I'm psyched about the election. I think we have a star in the making.

LOL! I'm just the opposite. I'm 27 and in all previous elections, I've voted Republican. But not now, because I've come to realize that all the political viewpoints I was told by my dad and Rush Limbaugh and the Christian media establishment aren't really all they're cracked up to be.
27, Bachelor's degree, Obama/Biden

i believe it was Winston Churchill who said something like "a young man who is not liberal has no heart, an old man who is not conservative has no brain" ...i'm 60 years old, completed 2 years at an independent Bible college with a very conservative point of view...Palin is a big plus for Mccain while Biden is a so-so pick for Obama...as yet i'm not thoroughly convinced of either ticket... but still checked Obama/Biden even tho i think Winnie made a good point

I am 39, high school grad , tech school grad , automotive , I am pro God and Christ . I also thank God for George Bush , As always God knew what was needed. I am nither Republican or Democrat i am a as it is writen and not in my opinion or in theory. God domands Pro Life ,God says no to gays (love them ,convert them but not to accept there life style ) God demands War and If we as Christans Accept Pro Choice or Pro Gays or Negotiation with Evel ,were aganist the word of God. God is truth and sorry our opinion is not nessary if so we would not need God to direct our paths. So with this said im going for Mccain - Palin for there views and there relationship with Our God and Lord. I am a Huck Fan Washington could of used a good pastor at the helm but he would of not needed a cabinet he has God. http://www.mikehuckabee.com/ . I also would like to say Thankyou for giving me and so many others a place to feel at home with fellow Brothers and Sisters in Christ. God Bless you and America (Lets take our country back ) We have the Authority to bind Satan and all the demons in Washington and cast them out never to return it called a Prayer and a VOTE. Its our God given Right. Were at a cross road in America and we have got to stand as Children of God Saved by Christ our Lord and Demand Bible based Democracy . You do NOT have freedom in America to Love God and Jesus Christ and God will not accept Us letting this go on any longer. My love to you all and God Bless.

Was leaning to Barr, especially since my state will vote overwhelmingly McCain anyway, but the addition of Palin and the continued whining of the celebrity-media complex has convinced me to support the GOP ticket completely.
