and, of course, I would like a democrat to win. However, I just hope it is not Cory Booker. I know he is probably the favorite and has all the right people backing him but I am unable to forget how he came to the aid of Bain Capital during the last presidential election.

I cannot understand why he would do that. He was an up and coming star in the democratic party and then badmouths those who criticized Romney.'s money machine. That was no slip of the tongue, and from that point on, while he was cute., witty and had all the right moves, I just stopped trusting him.

I am certainly open to reasons why I have misjudged him but there just does not seem to be any good ones.
