...I will still vote for the Democrat in the general election.

Because I am not a Republican, and it is not fair to punish the American people with a Republican President just because they don't vote exactly how I'd like.

I agree 100%

Naderators are selfish and childish

3. I will NEVER vote for a DLC corporate shill. NEVER!
In other words, in the general I'll vote for any of the Democrats currently running.

6. I've actually changed my tune on this because of Stem Cells
At one point I was a ABBH voter. Then I was having a conversation with my father who had a massive heart attack last spring. Although he is ok right now, he's facing a transplant at some point in his future. That is, unless Stem Cell research is adaquatly funded. The fix is out there, there just isn't enough money to speed up the process. I'll vote for any democrat, as long as they are clear on supporting stem cell research.

8. LoZ I respect that decision and I have
written many times over the past several months that if HRC does not get the nomination I will support whomever the democratic nominee is. Hope maybe by your post that others that support obama, edwards and all the others would say the same.

Listen folks, the Dems have a golden opportunity this election cycle to add more seats in the House and more so in the Senate. That is what we need to do...Elect a democrat as president and increase the lead in both houses so we can turn this country around and pass legislation that will be of benefit to the poor and especially the large middle class....

10. I hope you enlist in the military so that President Hillary can keep enough troops in Iraq
through the end of her first term, as she explicitly told the Tim Russert debate audience.
