I guess I'm incorrigible
I don't hate either of our Dem candidates. I like one better than the other, but I don't hate either of them. Neither do I think either is perfect.

I read GDP every day, too. I guess it's going to take something bigger than this forum to make me hate a fellow Dem.

1. I too have a preferred candidate
but I've refrained from sabotaging the other candidate, seeing how so many Democrats are already doing such a superb job. I've posted occasionally when I see an obvious falsehood circulating about either candidate, but I will not go out of my way to make the RW's job any easier.

BTW, great sig line! :hi:

2. Thanks!
But it seems that we're in the minority here, sadly.

3. I don't hate either of them, either.
I don't like one more than the other; I feel quite strongly that neither will make a good candidate in November, or a good president. I oppose them quite vehemently.

I don't hate them. I just don't like their politics. That makes them like most of the people in the communities I've lived in for the last 30 years, and most of the people I work with. Like many of my friends, neighbors, and well-loved family members.

I'd probably find things to like about both of them if they were neighbors or colleagues. I don't have to agree with people politically to like them.

4. Will you vote for the nominee?
It is your right not to, of course.

5. I don't know. I've got 6 months.
My last hope for a good Democratic nominee that I can confidently vote for is a brokered convention. While unlikely, it's still possible, so I'll wait and see what happens.

As for the other 2...I still have to decide what to do when my primary rolls around next month. I was planning to write in DK, but I may throw a vote to HRC in May, if it looks like that might help achieve a dead-locked convention.
