If I Can't Decide Who To Vote For Is Flipping A Coin Just Plain Wrong?

[orleans]

i was thinking of doing it in alphabetical order:
clinton heads/edwards tails
take that winner and do the same with kucinich
then take that winner and do the same with obama
(all alphabetical, of course)

i mean--i really haven't decided to vote for...and my time to decide is running out!

1. No. It's recommended.

Flip the coin. How do you FEEL about the result? Happy? Relieved? Not happy? Go with your reaction to the result of the coin toss, not the result itself.

5. i'm actually considering the idea of not voting--which i have never done

(i'm in obama country--so however i vote i'm guessing he'll get illinois. although hillary was born here ...? who knows)

[aquart]

9. Exactly. Who knows? Assume nothing.

But when you don't vote, you lose your bitching privileges.

10. speaking of having bitching privileges--did you see that

"on election day i stay home. i don't vote. fuck 'em! fuck 'em! i don't vote. for two reasons....i believe if you vote you have no right to complain. "

you gotta see it.

2. I don't see anything wrong with it.

Any of the major 3 and Kucinich too are a BIG UPGRADE for the White House.:hi:

4. i agree with touchdown

there is a lot of talent on offer for our team and any of these would, in my humble opinion, be a HUGE improvement

[polichick]

3. What?! This is America - sell that vote to the hightest bidder! nt

6. Not this year... As long as you keep your choices Democrat

All three of the Democratic candidates are highly qualified to do the job.
Although those of us who support one candidate or another feel our candidate is better than the others. Regardless of who wins the Democratic nomination we should be alright.

7. All I can tell you is based on Healthcare & Economic Plans

Edwards is #1.

Good luck deciding. :hi:

[Flarney]

8. If you are unsure, vote for Edwards to help keep him in the race...

...which will keep him in the debates, which will help to continue to draw distinctions between the candidates.

Not that I am biased or anything... :-P

[orleans]

12. yes, that is a good idea too. i do want him to stay in the race. n/t

[dorkulon]

11. I think your methodology is flawed.

You're giving Obama a 50% chance, while Edwards only gets... um, 1/8 maybe? (Not too good at odds)

[I Have A Dream]

14. Yes, I was thinking the same thing. The last person has the...

best chance while the first two have the lowest chances. The last person has to only win once while the first two have to win several times.

13. go into GDP and

You will be influenced not to vote for any of them!
