3. I would sit that one out
because i wouldn't want responsibility for what heppened next.
If I had to, i would vote for Zell Miller, because Lyndon Larouche is clearly a few clowns short of a circus, if you know what i mean.

4. Miller
An election is inherently the choice between the lesser of two evils. It's hard not to be less evil than LaRouche. Now a tough question might be Miller vs McCain.

11. Chretien, or whoever the new guy up there is. Or maybe Fox.
I have never ever ever supported anything at all that sounds like "move to Canada if my guy loses". But everyone has their breaking point. If my country came to the point of only offering these two clowns, it would not really be my country.

13. Miller vs. McCain is not that tough...
I'd take McCain every day of the week and twice on Sundays....

Miller is a fossil and a whore to the Republican party. At least McCain knows who he is and doesn't lift tail for those in power...

18. Yep, I'd pick McCain in that match-up too
I'd pick him over a lot of folks, actually.

16. that's not hard at all
McCain opposed the tax cut and a bunch of other * policies. Miller sold out to every single one. McCain has some independence, Miller is just another right wing shill.

6. Zell Miller.
Hands-down.

He caucused with the Democrats in the Senate and while I would like a lot more than that from him, it's something.

LaRouche is a kook.

9. Zell Miller, easy choice.
Edited on Fri Jan-02-04 01:02 PM by Misterpilot
LaRouche is a nut. Unpredictable. Though many disagree with Zell, as he is an old conservative democrat, at least he is honest and predictable...

Don't forget it was Zell that delivered Clinton's victory in the 1992 Georgia Primary which gave Clinton the momentum he needed to win Super Tuesday. Zell also got James Carville to help Bill.

15. A principled man would leave a party he so clearly disapproves of
Edited on Fri Jan-02-04 03:20 PM by 2dumb2beprez
rather than simply work to destroy said party. A "principaled" man, on the other hand, would be in charge of a school. Perhaps you're on to something and old Zell missed his true calling. He has certainly been one piss-poor legislator.

17. LaRouche, easily - pretty hilarious question
Zell Miller would consolidate all power in the hands of Tom DeLay. LaRouche would be a nutcase who would be hamstrung by all parties from doing anything (keep his hands off the nuclear codes, though, or there goes Buckingham Palace). I got a chuckle out of this one.

20. to answer the question LaRouche
his views are too loony for him to get any support and do any damage. Zell Miller would be as bad as Bush.
