Yeah, but will she vote for Obama or just stay home? Matariki Sep 2012 #1

She's a voter--my family has always taken voting very seriously DonRedwood Sep 2012 #2

If Romney just gets her to stay home it's still a win for Democrats. Kablooie Sep 2012 #39

True, though it's a bigger win if she votes for Obama. nt silvershadow Sep 2012 #53
