Poll question: Who would you vote for: Hillary or McCain?
I notice many Obama supporters say they will not vote for Hillary, but if she DOES get the nomination, it will def be against mccain. How will you vote in such a matchup?

16. Good to know that the admins know who they are
Hillary is my first choice, but I'll vote for Obama or Lee Mercer Jr. if that is the choice of my party. No room for McCainiac scum here!

21. He's a nut, basically
He's kind of become a runnning joke, a name to throw out when things get tense. As bad as the primary wars have been, they would have been worse if we couldn't play the Mercer card.

65. Lots of Democrats will, mark my words-
no matter whether we nominate Clinton or Obama.
Democrats are gullible. I've seen it up-close and personal. In a local election in our 80% Democratic burg, some right wing Santorum-worshipping asshole won the election just by switching his party to Independent. Democrats were smitten because he is (apparently- personally I can't see it) charming and charismatic. Sadly, Democrats fall for that shit.

That's why I see a McCain win as very likely.

8. Anybody who would vote for McCain over EITHER Hillary OR Obama
needs to have their ass kicked. Hard.

Hey, you idiots who can't stand the thought of voting for a candidate not chosen and adored by the all-important YOU, how would you like a Supreme Court comprised entirely of Alitos and Scalias?
How about another hundred years of war? How about more tax cuts for the rich? How about the Bush administration all over again?

Are you completely stupid?

that the Clintons were criminals in ANY way, and they were cleared of everything. John McCain is a war criminal, in that he A.was for this surge, and B he is trying to deny the constitutional right of women to an abortion.

42. I will vote for the Democratic Nominee, whoever he or she is.
Seriously- the people, on BOTH sides, who say otherwise need to give it a fucking rest and take a deep breath.

We're down to two excellent, capable, smart candidates. So YOUR first choice might not "win"? It's not the fucking Super Bowl. Waaaaaaaaaah. My first choice didn't even RUN. Am I going to bang my spoon on my high chair and dump my creamed corn on the floor? No. When this is all over I will support the DEMOCRATIC nominee because I am a DEMOCRAT and when all is said and done we need a DEMOCRAT back in the White House on Jan. 21, 2009.

57. Couldn't have put it better myself!
Sitting it out or voting for McCain is a vote for eternal war,
further wreckage of the economy and a repeal of Roe vs. Wade,
along with a further erosion of personal rights (if that's
possible at this point).

It's everyone right. It's definitely not my choice.

47. As long as she enters the convention with more elected delegates than Obama,
then she has my vote without question.

If she gets the nomination using delegates from Florida and Michigan's sanctioned primaries or if the SDs pick her even though she has fewer elected delegates, then I honestly don't know what I will do. Emotionally, I would not vote for anyone who won the nomination this way, but we often end up voting for the "lesser of two evils", so I really don't know. :(

73. 17% DU voting McCain. This is a countrywide phenom. You can
get angry about this but this is what Obama meant when he said he couldn't guarantee his voters would support Hillary. Call 'em 'assholes' call 'em repubs but this is the fact in our country. The 17% are simply truthtellers.
