I was undecided what to do until last night. If I look at all the candidates and their views on the issues that are most important to me, Ron Paul is my candidate. I had thought of voting for him just to make a point, like I did when I voted for Ross Perot, which was to let both major parties know NONE OF THE ABOVE.

However, this time, I think I will vote in the Democratic Primary because my vote will have more impact, and in case Hillary or Obama do become president, I have voiced my opinion on which one should be there. A vote for Ron Paul won't mean much at this point.

I actually feel that a lot of republicans may cross the isle this time for the same reason. They know McCain is a shoe in, so they will make their vote count. It will be an interesting primary.

In Texas, the polling place is the same for both parties. The democats voting machines are on one side of the room, the republicans on the other. You just decide which table to take your registration card to when you walk in the door and they stamp it for whichever party you choose that time. You are not registered either democrat or republican. Registration is neutral. I've heard it may be different in other states.
