Super Tuesday

Cadaverous Pallor · 02-04-2008, 09:55 PM

How are you voting? (Or did, or would vote, if your state isn't involved.)

Let me get a poll up here....

Alex · 02-04-2008, 09:58 PM

I voted a couple weeks ago but did not vote for a presidential candidate in the primary. Unless things change drastically, if given the opportunity I will vote for Obama in the general election.

Cadaverous Pallor · 02-04-2008, 09:59 PM

I voted Obama on the poll.....but I can't vote in the primary since I'm a registered Libertarian. I do believe that Democrats should elect their own runner, but I do wish I could vote. For the first time I'm kind of bummed I'm registered for a third party. (if anything I'd go independent.)

Please, Dems, don't let me down!

Hahah, i was thinking of making a Poll poll earlier today, but hestitated because it might be thought a tad intrusive.

But it's not, and you were cool to start one, CP. Um, where's the poll though?

I'm voting for Hillary. She's not my favorite politician. But i like her. I want her to be the first woman president, and I'm fine with her faults in light of that important threshhold being crossed.

I'm cool with the first black pres. line being crossed, too. But i just don't like Obama as much. I feel he gives a darn good speech, and has his heart in many of the right places. But I just don't feel as comfortable with him as I do with Hillary. Maybe it's just the years of familiarity I have with her.

I would have much preferred the non-threshhold-breaking John Edwards to either of them. I think his heart is in much more right places than either Clinton or Obama. (And of course, my policy trends jibe even stronger with never-a-chance-in-hell Dennis Kucinich).

Obama's young, and the presidency might still be his someday if his star continues to ascend. It's not exactly that I think it's Hillary's "turn," but I think she's more, i dunno, presidential.

(And of course, I can't resist Former First Lady as President and Former PotUS as First Fella. Forget the first woman or first black ... when we will ever have a shot at this again?!?!)

Oh, the propositions? Voting no on all of them. Especially those nasty, greedy, money-grubbing Indian ones.

I did the absentee thing in my jammies (mentioned in another thread). Voted no on many of the initiatives and gave a yes to Obama. There are things I like about Hillary, Obama and Edwards. Wish I could have had all three from Column B

I decided to vote for the opposite of whatever Cadaverous Pallor and/or Ghoulish Delight voted for.

Go Clinton !

€uroMeinke · 02-04-2008, 10:28 PM

I don't belong to a party so I didn't vote in the primary, though I could have arranged to vote dem if I wanted to. At the moment, I'd be fine with anyone but Huckabee.

wendybeth · 02-04-2008, 10:30 PM

Obama. Clinton is pissing me off- now she's getting all teary on the trail again. Do you think that's presidential? I wanna go all Tom Hanks on her: 'There's no crying in politics!'

Not Afraid · 02-04-2008, 10:41 PM

I have been sitting on my absentee ballot because I can't decide.

Alex · 02-04-2008, 10:43 PM

Well, there is plenty of crying in politics. The part that bothers me is that both times she's cried it has been in response to people telling her how wonderful she is. I don't mind crying, I'd just prefer it be from better causes.
