I will vote for Bernie Sanders, even though in my heart I know he cannot win

the general election.. If he is the Democratic nominee, I will vote for him.

I do not think Hillary Clinton will be the next President, But if she is our party nominee, she has my vote.. But I do not think there is a chance in this world or the next that she will be the President.

My choice, Martin O'Malley is polling at 2%.. not looking good for me.. But you know he will get my vote if he is our nominee..

Joe Biden, if he wanted it, could be the next President I think.. and he may be waiting on the sidelines to see how everything plays out and then decide if he wants to get in.

Why am I so damn negative.

Just look at these boards and how people are communicating with each other.. The nastiness, (and there are some right wing trolls stoking that for all its worth) has peoples backs up that you actually have people saying that if their choice does not win, they will sit it out.

I cannot wait till the primary/caucus season is over and those hell bent on keeping any Democrat from the Presidency will crawl back in their caves (ahem) and people can actually focus on getting things done!

Gad this carping I am doing right now has given me a major migraine!

primaries that are still 7 months away. One of our excellent candidates will get the nomination. There is no need to bicker on DU for that to happen.

Quitting time here in EST. Time to go get a tasty Pale Ale. Cheers.

PS. Good O'Malley article here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/12811768

I personally won't vote for any fucking warmongers who supported the Iraq War.
