1. Well, no.
I want Clark to get in, I would definitely vote for him. I'd also like to see Gore in if Clark does not get in, I'd definitely vote for him as well. If it stays as is, I have no idea who I would vote for, probably Kucinich.

13. me too...Clark/Gore/Who the hell knows
Right now I haven't a clue who I will caucus for come January, but if Clark and/or Gore are both out I am most likely to go with a 'tier 2' candidate.

2. I have my favorites and my disfavorites at this time, but not locked in yet
There is much to be seen from all of them at this point, though my personal choice is Richardson.

3. I haven't decided yet...............
but I'm leaning toward Hillary Rodham Clinton.

I'm holding out for Al Gore, but with each passing day I become more and more convinced that he can do more to thwart global warming as a private citizen than as President.

6. Are all the primaries on the same date now?
I thought some Primaries had been moved up to January and February, which means only six months to go not nine...I have decided to probably vote for a Democrat but nothing is locked in as of yet. There may still come an Independent that makes sense and has some answers.

8. I hope there is no 3rd party candidate
It would do nothing but take away Dem votes and put another dictator in the WH. We need to WIN and take no chance of another Repug WH.

7. I was never much of a fan of Al Gore in the past
But now I find myself hoping he throws his hat in the ring.

I am not satisfied with any of our current front-runners' ability to win.

:shrug:

11. Hillary
I think she's the best by far on defense except for Biden, who cannot win.

14. It occurred to me this afternoon how unenthusiastic I am about this election.
It all seems like a long, drawn out play and in the end the vote gets stolen and we're stuck with a lunatic no matter what happens.

15. Obama or Edwards. I dont like Hillary based on the DLC bullying I see at DU.
Hillary per-se isnt all that bad- I just cant see working under people who trashed me as "far left" and "nut-roots" just because I refused to suipport Joe Lieberman or Bush on Iraq.

I'll do everything I can to make sure I get to work for a candidate who has good people under them- people who dont disparage me for wanting to be an activist with a voice-or smear me for being "too Liberal" or for not supporting Bush's war..

In other words, I'd prefer to work under the Edwards or Obama folks than work under DLC types who despise me and my brand of activism.

16. I have not decided.
If Gore decides to run, I will vote for him.

For now, it's likely DK but I am still not 100 percent sure.

17. Probably.
It depends on who is actually on the ticket when it gets to me.

18. No - mainly because I hope not everyone's in.
Because, if this is what I've got to work with, I'm stumped.

I live far outside the "blue bubble" and really don't see who, on our side, is going to pull in the "swing Bubba" vote we need to flip some purplish states.

Sigh.

20. I haven't even thought of narrowing it down.




Too much could happen between now and the primaries. I'd like to see a few more debates too. Someone could still emerge from the back of the crowd the really impresses me. And BTW, my state of residence (Florida) wants to move the primary up to January. I don't like it as that is just too early.

23. Here's how I see it
Gore stands for the environment. Edwards for the middle and working class. Clark for a way out of the war. I would vote for any of these stances.

24. Nope
There's a few I know I won't vote for, but even if nobody else enters the race, I'm still undecided.
