9. You left out Undecided.
I'm still studying and learning about the candidates. However, in the November election I will also vote ABR.

14. Whoever the candidate is
I will vote for.

I haven't settled on one yet, though have pretty much ruled out Gravel. Any one of them would be a gazillion times better than any Repug.

19. I like what he did
years ago, but if I am going to get on McCain for being too old, then I need to be consistant. He's got to be at least 75 and I just think we need someone younger running things.

16. Pretty strong evidence that DU is not representative of LV Dems
Kucinich leads here but is polling at 2% on any national poll.

31. You're Dragging Me Into A Unnecessarily Divisive Debate
But you asked... Dennis Kucinich has about as much chance of being the next pres as does Ron Paul... That's not an indictment of the man just a judgment of the way things are...

PEACE

37. I think Hillary's problem is the primary schedule
If she does not win one of the first two.. she will not win any of the first five. and the she will be hammererd on Super Tuesday . ANd on the other hand, if she wins Iowa. I suspect there will be a backlash in NH


She loses Iowas (likely... she HASto win NH..... because she is not going to win Nevada or South Carolina

40. Bll Clinton Lost IA and NH But Won The Nomination
But he was running against a favorite son and a quasi favorite son in those primaries/caucuses...

I am a bit concerned about America electing an African American or a woman but as I told my African American friend if a person won't vote for an African American they probably won't vote for a Democrat either...

Edwards is the "safe" choice but that doesn't mean he's the right choice... Electing a black man would be a redemptive moment for our nation...

To lose the presidential election in this environment is unfathomable...

I see a replay of 00 and 04 except I think the Dems can turn New Mexico, Colorado, and Arizona blue...

I think Dixie is a lost cause with the possible exception of VA and FL...

49. That is why I think the Best ticket
qould be Obama-Richardson or Obama-Mark Warner

Obama might not win a single southern state, but he would make the GOP defeend their southern flank

That means leas GOP money in OH VA MO and FL

we take two of those we ought to win given the present climate

22. I actually am a little surpised by the results
Edited on Thu Jul-19-07 06:06 PM by Perky
I have not seen Obama lead the top tier before.

Wonder why that is? Nothing has moved the polls in that direction.


I wonder if it becasue of the time of day the poll was posted.

39. Not sure. but in this cycle you don't win any unless you win
15% of the vote in a state. THe rules were set before the field got so crowded with qualified candidates.

41. Well, I guess we better not vote for him, then. You know, if he "can't win"
Obviously- we shouldn't vote for someone who can't win, because by not voting for him we will respect the fact that no one is going to vote for him. If massive amounts of people were to actually turn out and vote for someone who people aren't supposed to vote for, what would happen? Certainly, it's better not to risk it and find out. :crazy:

Thanks for telling us who we're allowed to support! :hi: :eyes:

42. You Should Vote Your Conscience...
It's like sports... I like my favorite teams because I like them, not because they are champions or potential champions...

But just as I am not under the illusion the Miami Dolphins are going to win the SuperBowl I can't operate under the illusion Dennis Kucinich will be the Democratic nomineee in 2008...

45. No. I think Al Gore will be, if he runs.
If he doesn't, the way things stand now, I'm voting for Kooch. I think our party needs to listen to people like me, more.

47. Vote for him in the primaries
I always voted for who I wanted to win in the primaries. Have yet to back the actual winner during the primaries. Who knows, maybe, I'll get lucky this time. That is if I ever decide who to support. :shrug:
