Hello everyone! Just wanted to say I am fully republican and am devastated (as I'm sure you are too) about the loss this election. I hope to gain friends here for support, etc. Thanks!!

    At least I voted and was pretty involved in the iowa caucus this time around. So I guess I have earned the right to complain. /grumble

    Welcome... I am definitely disappointed in the election. I worked hard on my end (me and my mother both) for Romney. Like you, I am devastated.
  • Thanks for the warm welcome. Yes, I was praying like crazy for this particular election. Funny thing is, I used to be a registered democrat until I began seeing many uneducated people at the polls. I did my homework and discovered I was in fact NOT democrat!! I'm a very proud republican and don't think that will ever change!! I can only hope others out there decided to do their homework.... many might be surprised!! I know I was!!

    Well... I am definitely glad you did your research. I agree with you. I think too many people are uninformed, and would be quite surprised if they really researched.

    I too used to be a democrat from parents of democrats. I actually thought I was a liberal democrat! Then I took a good look at what that actually meant. I found out that I do not believe in much of what the dems espouse. I do think that the dem party has changed as much as I have changed. I am 69 years old and have finally grown up!!
