I have never voted for a winning Presidential ticket until now

I have been voting since 1982 so my first Presidential election was 1984 and we know how that went. In 1986 I left the party when the local Democratic Party endorsed my Republican opponant instead of me because they didn't want a student on the county commission. I have voted third party or independent in every presidential election between '86 and when I rejoined the party in '05.

So hopefully my streak will be broken this year.
