1. No Feingold and no Gore would leave me way bummed...
The rest of the field as posted evokes a giant "meh" from me. I voted Obama since he seems potentially the most interesting.

5. Agreed.
No one else really inspires me, except maybe Obama, who could probably use a few more years of getting things done. Behind him, maybe Clark, but then we are getting into serious yawn territory.

If it's not Gore/Feingold as the ticket I will be quite disappointed.

19. I gotta agree
I am disappointed that Feingold is giving up. You're right, after him (discounting that sleazy Biden) Obama and Clark are about the best of the lot.

7. Undecided because...
I can't imagine 08 without Gore.

1. Gore/Clark 8 years, then Clark/Obama 8 years, then Obama/whoever 8 years... yeeeeowwwwww!


2. I'd vote for any Dem if #1 isn't in the cards.

I can dream.

8. Anyone the dems choose I will work diligently and incessantly for.
I love my country, but I know another Repuke pres who ignores the environment puts a "has been" sign on our very existence and the existence of many innocent species. Better Al than anyone else, but better any dem than any puke. I'd vote for the smallest amoeba cell at the bottom of the Pacific before I'd vote Pug, especially if the name has ever been associated in any way with Bush.

9. I don't think Gore wants it.
Clark or Edwards would be just fine. Please, not Hillary.

10. Well, you can never have too many polls. Actually, I have really had enough already.
Why not wait until somebody actually declares for certain that they are not running? I liked my own Senator Feingold, but he has said he is not running. I could be asked who I prefer other than Feingold since he has said definitively that he is not running for president.

11. Anyone care to guess my choice?
Heh heh. Yep. Like so many here at DU, I am a Clarkie.

But the ONE guy I would want over Clark as Prez is the one I'm not allowed to vote for (like in 2000, when I wasn't allowed to vote for Gore either along with a 500,000+ plurality of Americans).

12. Undecided
Though I like Hillary Clinton, I want to see the entire field before making any choices.

13. Clark is winning a DU poll that Gore isn't a part of...
I'm shocked, I tell you.

18. Personally, I hope Nader voters learned the lesson from 2000
and don't miss the opportunity to save us from a Republican president.
