Poll question: If your nominee loses the primary and runs as an independent...
Who would you vote for if your choice for the Democratic nominee loses the nomination, but then runs (ala Lieberman) as an independent candidate in the General?

I don't think it would ever happen, but worth asking wrt loyalty to party vs. loyalty to candidate

2. I've voted straight Dem since my first vote for Adlai Stevenson and I'll not change now.

4. To be honest, I think we could possibly have a serious 3 way race
I really think McCain has zero chance in November no matter who the nominee is. It would be fun to see Republicans come in 3rd.
