Carmela Soprano, Targeted Swing Voter

May 7, 2007 at 12:18 pm

Tony Soprano’s wife Carmela just might end up being the kind of woman voter who decides the next election — or at least the Republican presidential primary.

Her political leanings are no secret.

In an April 2006 episode, this conversation occured:

Meadow Soprano: “9/11, 9/11. Bush is using it as an excuse to erode our Constitutional protections and you’re falling for it.”

Carmela Soprano: “Well, I voted for him.”

Carmela doesn’t just vote for Bush.  She reads about him, too.  In last night’s episode we saw her reading this in bed.

Perhaps the series finale of The Sopranos might reveal the big question we’ve all been wondering: In 2008 will Carmela go with McCain, Giuliani, or Romney.  Or perhaps Fred Thompson — given her family’s connections to the law.
