2. Nader would win by a landslide.

10. You've pretty much got my point.
I want to show that Obama supporters are generally reasonable, and -- more importantly -- actual Democrats.

26. I'm actually referring to your responses...
...including this one, of which I'll ask the same thing: is that a question (i.e. "They do look funny, don't they?") or a nonsensical statement (as above)?

20. As much as
Hillary is turning me off these days my mantra is SCOTUS SCOTUS SCOTUS.

I do not beleive for one second that Hillary would appoint another Clarence Thomas or Anton Scalia to the bench.

It's good enough for me.

13. I'd be voting for Hillary.
Wouldn't be making calls or donating like I am now for Obama... but I'd pull the lever for her without blinking an eye if it means sending McSame into the retirement he needed 20 years ago.

And I'm from AZ, too.

11. Supporting Hillary
Just like I would if she's the nominee.

We are for the most part realist. I don't think Hillary is foolish enough to pick a fight with Iran and I value a Woman's right to chose.

The only difference is I would get involved in a congressional race here because I'd be more passionate about taking out our jack ass GOP congressman.

15. Exactly.
Edited on Fri Apr-11-08 10:16 PM by MercutioATC
I obviously have my preference, but I'll vote for the Dem in the general...and in the primary. Clinton is the only Dem on that list.

16. Leave politics for 2008
Likely just continue to support fusion while I play games or something.

I spent days deciding if I could somehow tolerate voting for Clinton or Lieberman someday and the answer is no.

Thankfully I wont need to leave politics for 2008 for Obama is really doing great!

17. I think it's oddly poetic but somewhat telling...
...that there aren't any replies to the thread I posted posing the same question of Hillary supporters (with Obama's name in the title).

38. Vote for Zell,
push for a good VP. Zell is getting up there in age, and he seems very angry. The presidency is a stressful job. Not a good combination for long life.


Naw. Probably not. I would give serious consideration to whoever was going third party. I would consider Hillary. I would consider using my passport. Maybe in the desperation I would come up with another option. Fortunately we have a better choice.

42. I don't know you and I don't do pet tricks.
So, if you actually want a reply or discussion, I suggest attempt to rise up to some minimal level of social decorum you'd extend to any random stranger.

49. Nader?
lol made you look :evilgrin:. Honestly, in less dire circumstances I might get behind a third party candidate since I find any DLC democrat repulsive regardless of their last name. Where we're at right now though I'd be behind Hillary all the way.

BTW, wouldn't Lieberman have to run as a member of the "Connecticut for Lieberman Party"? :rofl:
