U.S. Presidential Race 2012

[CRAZY-HORSE]

question:

1. approx how many % of Americans would be called "swinging voters" do you think,i'd say its probably 40-45% here?

2. do people generally for arguements sake tend to vote for their local republican or democrat, then also vote for President of the same persuasion of do you think they might(in general) vote for say a republican to represent them,then vote for a democrat as President because they like the image they might present to the country and for the western world in general?

i just ask these questions because here, people tend to through their votes in a particular direction because they want a particular party leader to become PM whether they like their local representative or not...!

MH, you dont need to give your preference on the forum as to what you do(i can ask you that in a PM,but im sure i know your answer LOL), but just a general answer from your life experiences and observations would be appreciated,thanks mate!
