1. I voted Option #3...
...but that way largely a protest vote against the skewed wording of this poll (compare what you wrote with, "If none of the candidates I'm supporting is nominated, I won't vote Democratic"). What I really think lies somewhere between 2 and 3. On the one hand, I don't want to be forced to vote for the Republicratic party; on the other hand, Kerry or Edwards may well surprise me for good if nominated.

3. This obsessive urging people to take pledges is infantile. And the
way you composed the specific choices is even more infantile. You may as well have offered the choices thusly:

1. Agree with me - Cool! Dems rule!
2. Neutral. (You're a little bit of a jerk, but I'll let you live.)
3. You don't see this my way? You're an ^&*!!* idiot.

6. Infantile is nicer than the word
I would have used.

Meet your new boss, same as the last boss... :silly:

I want my country back, and will not settle for less.
