Poll question: Who would you vote for in the general: Kerry, Bush or Dean?
Imagine if Howard Dean commits the unforgivable sin of running as a third party candidate - thereby all but killing any chance of the Democrats defeating George W. Bush this November.

Who would you vote for?

1. OK...could we END this?? Howard Dean is NOT a Green and never will be
he doesn't believe in Green party values and I think Greens would be ridiculously conflicted if they promoted someone like Dean as party leader.

So....PLEASE!!

4. Word to that.
Dean belongs in the green party like Karl Marx belongs in the Constitution Party.

3. An unlikely assumption
because Dean has said he'd support the Democratic candidate, just as I will. (Note: I usually vote third party in presidential elections)

11. Dean has said much that he has reneged on lately
I'm beginning to seriously question Dean's mental state.

IRV is wonderful. Unfortunately, I don't know of one damn politician who thinks so.

on edit: I always edit

16. Kerry
although I'm sad you force me into such a position. Howard won't run on a 3rd party ticket. Period. I'm voting for him a dem instead.

17. Who are these people saying "green" and why am I suspicious.
This serves nothing. Fight for the Democratic Party--it's worth fighting for. I'm voting for Dean in my state's primary, but he will not be a Green candidate--this is a rightist fantasy.

18. How many goddamned times does Dean have to say he'll support the nominee
Before you'll take him at his word.

Jesus Christ.

22. I am locking this thread...
This thread is inflammatory. Governor Dean is not a Green Party candidate.

Thanks,
