Just wait.....
I voted for Tsongas (in a primary), Dukakis, and Clinton. Then, I got old. I voted for Bush in the last election--not because I thought he was great, but because when I pushed the button for Kerry, initially, I got that bad feeling you get when you give a guy your number and then spend the next few weeks praying he doesn't call. So I switched. That was probably a mistake, but at that point, it was hard to know for sure. I voted democrat in the mid-terms, but in Indiana, that's the same as voting Republican.....
But I have noticed that, with age, (I am 40) responsibility, experience, and children, I have become much more conservative, like my parents before me and theirs before them. Obviously this doesn't happen to everyone--otherwise there'd be no Democratic party. But I've heard it said, and I think there's some truth to it, "If you're conservative when you're young, you have no heart; If you're liberal when you're old, you have no head."
