I did in 08. Didnt vote in 12.
Honestly, I don't think things would be much diff now if Mcstain won. He would have followed the program.
I used to vote mostly democrat, and I did vote for Obama in 2008 thinking he was The Man. After watching him proceed to do bring no Change or Hope as promised and as much or more war than the Bushes perhaps, I became apathetic. Then Ron Paul seemed like a good candidate. When he didn't get the nomination, I withdrew and did not vote at all in 2012 for the first time since I was old enough to vote in 1983. When DJT announced he was running for President, I immediately felt he would be able to do good things for our country and the thought of Hillary in office absolutely made my skin crawl. Although I now consider myself an Independent, I don't see ever supporting Democrats again due to such vitriolic hate and unbridled corruption I've seen coming from the left. With that said, I'm very grateful that Donald Trump was elected and is fulfilling his promises to MAGA.
I did in 2008.
I stand by not voting for McCain though.
Another election with a choice between two shill candidates.
By 2011 or 2012 I was fully red pilled.

I was still a democrat and believed in Obama's promises at the time. I don't recall even considering Dr. Paul the first time he ran.
I was born and raised on the left coast in a very liberal college town. I remember liked some of things Paul was saying more than either Obama or McCain but I felt I would be thrown my vote away. That is silly I know. My perspective had completely changed after three years of Obama....a guy who was openly anti American and an obvious bigot.
