Poll question: Imagine: The two candidates for President are Bush and Palin and voting is mandatory.
Which one do you voter for? You have to vote- it's mandatory, and besides, it's a civic duty.

5. Bush may be an idiot, but Palin is even dumber.
I think I'd put a bullet in my head before voting for either one, but (and this is horrifying to me) Bush is less dangerous than Palin.

8. At least Bush now has "some" national and international experience.
Some is better than none at all.

13. I voted for Palin.
I think Speaker Pelosi might actually allow impeachment of Palin to be on the table. So it would four years of Bush versus three months of Palin.
