(795 posts)Yes, I understand you think that you think that but what you are intimating is a race between an angel and devil. Regardless of honesty, I think voting for Bush might indicate some problems in his candidacy. The article also said he was courted by the Republican Party. I assume that he has some ideas and would endorse policies that you might find not desirable.
The mere fact that Perriello seems to have support from women and men in the Obama and Clinton administrations might indicate that you should consider that this might not be a bus issue. From the little I have seen, Perriello is not running an anti-choice campaign and has stated that voting for Stupak was a mistake. He is taking a pro-choice position. Northam is clearly making pro-choice the center piece of his campaign but may have other weaknesses. This is the reason people seem to be lining up on both sides. They both seem pretty strong candidates unless you want to feel like you are always under the bus. To put it frankly, none of the people I see endorsing Perrielo would endorse him if he was as anti-choice as you are trying to present. None of them.
