Forum Democratic Primaries

Just for fun and shear curiosity, who will you vote for in the Democratic Primaries?

(I know this is not all those on the ballet, but they wouldn't all fit.)

Clinton.

Your right, Obama will win.

mmmm...I'm eating a blueberry Scone right now, who wants some?

Yes it is quite noble, is it not?

Nationally this is turning into a two pony race.

The only real corkscrew in it is, that even though Hillary Clinton is still number one in the polls taken, Obama is gaining a ton of ground at a very quick rate. Also, when one looks at polls where the interviewee  was asked why they chose not to pick someone else, Obama's reasons and numbers are somewhere around 83% to "Not experienced enough." Where as Hillary's reasons include "too liberal," and "not trustworthy," the only thing people seem to not like about Obama is his lack of time in politics. [Which goes back to my not really liking him running in 08. I think, given the same situations as now, four years into the future in 2012, Obama would be unstoppable. He would be a Reagen-esqe dominator]. The other main, huge problem I see, is just looking at the age spread. People 55+ support Hillary much more than Obama, and statistically they are the ones showing up to vote. Yeah, Obama has a HUGE push in the youth demographics, but they just do not turn up to vote. It also comes down to a pride issue with the VP spot. If one wins the vote, will the be able to swallow their pride and get the other to ticket under them. And the follow up question is if this is going to be good for them. If Hillary wins, she will be stupid not to try to get Obama on board. If Obama wins, he could be shoving a dagger right in the heart of his presidential chances by ticketing with Hillary.

Obama.

Id rather vote for Adolf Hitler than Hillary.

Kucinich is too socialist and too short.

Obama is likeable, but has no relevant experience - cub scouts doesn´t
count. Populist of the year. Yawn.

Joe Biden has potential, but currently seems a bit out of touch.

Bill Richardson sounds good on paper, but hard to tell until he actually gets
some national press.

I guess that leaves Hillary.

Insane little vegan man.**
He never has a chance. I have to give him props for running every time though. He's from my congressional district too.

I would rather revive the Soviet Union and go live there than live here with Hillary in charge.
