Times sure have changed, not only in the rules to follow or not, but the attitude we seem to have about voting.

My first presidential vote was McCarthy vs Nixon. As a MA resident I was and am proud to have voted against Nixon. (Don't blame me, I voted for McCarthy). I would not be proud to have voted for our current president- and did not.
