Dem. Primary
 

I know we have a large split of politics here, and dont want a huge debate, just curious who people (dem's) are liking in this primary. I have my beliefs, and like qualities in all the canidates, and havent completly made up my mind, but I'll vote anyways..
This is completly for my own curiosity, and I think we can discuss it, but I'm keeping my selection private...

I see Mr. (and I use that term extremely loosely) Kerry is leading so far.

Looks like the "Baaaaa...." syndrome........:p :smash: ;)

"Sheep to the Slaughter
Oh and I thought this must be love.....
All your sons and daughters
In a stranglehold with a kid glove.......

The sport of kings, the old queen's heart
The prince in darkness stole some tart
And it's in the papers, it's in the charts
It's in the.....stop press before it all starts"

Sorry, can't vote in the primary..................

FP, if your a registered Repub, I guess choice 5 should work for ya :D

If your an independent (I was for a while) it's all good....

OK, chew me out like my 14 year old does on this, but I have no interest whatsoever in politics as far as elections and I don't see why people put so much hype and pressure on me to vote when I don't honestly know the candidates, I don't believe in just voting for the party, and I don't get turned on when half of it is the childish mud slinging that goes on before the election. I'll support or oppose specific issues, but the whole election process just sours me. That being said, at this point, Kerry seems to be the most normal of the bunch.

John Kerry is an enemy of freedom. :af:

Oh then just screw it, and throw me in with the hippies.

Didn't want to have a party affiliation whne I registered. I tend to vote for the candidate based on how they go with my views.

I tend to side against incumbents as I am not a fan of career politicians or the politcal machine...........................

Why is Dean showing so badly in this poll?

Is it b/c you guys are more familiar with Kerry?

Is it because of Dean's volatility?

Is it because Dean is further to the left than Kerry ideologically?

I'm only asking because his campaign had a lot of buzz at the beginning, now it looks like it's petering out.

-WW

God I'm bored! I need a new job.
Terry McCaullife put the kibosh on Howard Dean! I'll put good money he puts a whammy on Kerry around mid October!

FWW.....Need I say it again?

"Baaaaaaaa......"

Easy Steve.... I definetly am not a sheep... Besides, at least we have choices in our party this year....

Ben,
Early in the game, I liked Dean, his views on Iraq are similar to my own beliefs, however he lacks the experience to have any successful foreign policy, if he had a bit of varied experience (ie. a senator or congress, as well as Gov.) it may be different..

Edwards is charismatic, but I dont see him as a successful president, maybe in 10 years with a bit more experience..?

Clark, seems like a decent guy, liked him early, but never had strong leanings towards him; again he lacks any experience in a political office...you could do worse for VP than Wes... (read Danny Q)

Kerry is closer to the middle of the road, where I lean on a bunch of issues, his views on health care and such are in line with mine....
how he handles the gay marriage issue (Unfortunetly this will be a HUGE issue in the upcoming elecetion if Kerry gets the nod) and the continuing war will be interesting..
IMHO, it's gonna be alot closer than originally thought come Nov....

FYI I picked Kerry in this, but it is not set in stone....

Bryan

Its soo confusing:huh:
Havn't made up my mind yet, but whoever is chosen will get my vote...
I'm not too fond of Bush.:(

Papa Eben,
thats the bottom line, I dont think Bush is doing a good job and want him out... For a long time I was a registered (I), but GWB made me go Fully to the (D)....

IMO Kerry isn't posturing like most candidates do. He is addressing issues in an honest manner.

He doesn't have my vote (yet).

Interesting Primary.

Great thread 'hound ! :)

I'm going to put myself on the ballot for prez. :D

dude you have to born here.........

be

Kerry doesn't have an honest bone in his body. You see him bird hunting?? Trying to get the southern and IRA voters?? He is the largest supporter of gun control going. Talk about two faced. Typical politics.

One more thing, I see my cousin the interplanetaryangler is here. To be warned, there are more of us. Remember Demacrates taste like chicken:alien: :alien:

Pete,
Got your email, I'll keep you posted... I'm working on it...

(even if you are a republican :D )

I'ma big fan of Nader, but look at the mess he caused last election..If he wasnt in the running last election, Gore would have been the Prez and the world would be a much different place now... better or worse, who knows:huh:

I lived in Vermont from 86 till 2000. Dr. Dean was our choice for Lt. Gov. and when #^&#^&#^&#^& Snelling died Dr. Dean took over. He was elected and re-elected to I think like 6- 2 yr terms. He was a Good Governor for Vermont and would make a Good President of the U. S. I voted for him in this poll and I will vote for him in the primary and I hope I get to vote for him in the General election.
He is electable. He can beat GWB and if the powers that run the Democratic Party would give him the chance he would be ready today! Kerry has sucked the xxx of everyone in Washington to try to become President. Why, cause he seeks power. Dr. Dean wants to become President so we the people will have an honest and truthful hard worker in the Presidency to lead this country out of the trouble it is in.
Dr. Dean took care of the Gay Marrage situation in Vermont.
Dr. Dean gave the kids of Vermont the Health Care Program that they have today.
Look into History and you will see that most of our successful Presidents have been Governors. The Governors have to make the tough decisions and have to know how to stand on their own feet and do what is best for their State. Dr. Dean, Gov. Dean which ever, can do it cause he has done it!
I would hope you would think about this and search google for Deans web site and find out the answerrs to your questions and then come out and support him. Dr. Dean hits the nail into the oak when he tells the truth, "Only YOU can change America. Get out there and support me for President!"
We the people, the VOTERS, must stand up and take our country back from the politicans.
What has Kerry actually ever done for Massachusetts. I read the other day that in 12 years as Senator he has only filed like 8 bills and none of them have passed. He plays polotics with the rest of that Washington Bunch. Sorry, I digress.

Support Dr. Dean for President!

why does everyone think Kerry dishonest ?

Have never seen the dishonest part before. the rest are a bunch of wankers :)

That can be changed. :bshake:

Haven't you watched the "X-Files," man?!

:)

mmm scully :)

What about species... she's much hotter than Scully, not that I didnt like scully.... but Species is a great movie... for one reason...





















And it aint Mike Madsen or Ben Kingsley....

oooh ya. that too :uhuh:

In my opinion, he is only out for himself and seems to try too hard to gain all groups acceptance no matter what it takes. How can someone be on both sides of issues? maybe he just changes his mind alot:confused: :laughs:

I would never vote for him, you think Clinton was bad?:laughs:

see who's in this picture


I hope Dean catches up but I don't know if I would vote for him either.

Cast your vote for me, Bruce. If I win I'll loan you my antigravity waders so you can skim along the surface of the Ditch.:cool:
