7. Leaning that way myself
Kucinich is the only other person that I actually believed, EVERY SINGLE TIME he opened his mouth.

He's the only other person I can be 100% sure is not in this for power, but for change.

I don't know if I can vote with my heart though... something in me thinks we're doomed.

Kerry or Edwards. Neither can beat Bush.

5. But what will you do? You can't just sit out.
Kerry's going to be the guy and we want Bush out. Right? The only way to get him out is to vote for Kerry.

11. Kerry's going to be the guy only if you vote for him.
Some are trying to appoint him, but theoretically, this is a democratic republic.

13. I don't get to vote til the end of April so it won't matter.
I doubt the Doctor will still be in it by then.

18. I know how you feel.
Our caucus (which used to be a primary) is supposed to happen in April too.

14. Constitutional Republic
with democratic ideals. We are not a Democracy - we were lied to in public school.

17. I don't have to get behind anyone.
ESPECIALLY Kerry and Edwards. I would vote for Kucinich, Dean or Sharpton.....I will not vote for anyone who voted for the war and the Patriot Act.

I will vote for Wes in my Illinois primary and write his name in when I vote in the GE. I'm leaving the Democratic party. I'm going to register as an Independent. Never again will I support the Democratic party.

I've already said that if Kerry is the nominee, I'm leaving the Democratic party. Terry McAuliffe decided WEEKS ago that Kerry was HIS nominee. SO.....he will lose MY support.

9. I didn't support Kerry to begin with,
but he has my vote, my voice, and my money when and if the time comes.

Anything to get * out of office.

10. I'm moving on over to Kerry too.
I cried and cried last night and today cause I really believe in General Clark. But the momentum of Kerry is something awesome to behold. Before Clark, he was my first choice. Now I'm back where I started. Just hope Kerry has enough sense to ask Clark to be his VP.

12. Yes I have to admit
Even if we nominate someone who is Bush Lite, Bush Lite still is better than Bush.

15. Whatever you do, just get ready to jump on Edwards bandwagon last.
He's the one who's going to beat Bush.

16. Kucinich has my vote now
He is the only other candidate who is even close to the General in ideaology.

Clark will always have my brain - Kucinich may get my heart but I still do not agree with him on everything like I did the General.
