What does a race without Dean look like

[Egnever]

Just curious how the votes fall without Dean in the race. Who would you vote for?

1. A race without Dean? I'll make it easy - Bush in '04

game set match.

5. This is as useful

as contemplating a race with Hillary. Hillary isn't running and Dean isn't dropping out. End of story.

8. Course hes not

I just thought it would be interesting to see where deans support would go.

Its certainly not meant to represent reality in anyway.

Just an attempt to see where people lean if Dean isnt there.

2. This poll will never receive an honest answer

The true-believers of any candidate will all refuse to accept a scenario without their boy, though I hold out hope that everyone here will vote Democratic in the general. Since Lieberman has no chance to win, all the major candidates with the possible exception of Gephardt are monumental improvements on Bush. Further, they all SHOULD have a good chance of winning.

3. I agree any one of them stand a good shot of beating shrub

Why would people misrepresent thier suport on this poll though?

Are you saying people will vote for say sharpton just so some other candidate doesnt get thier support?

It may happen but it seems awfully silly to me for people to do that. Dean isnt represented in this poll it has no bearing on his support other than to see where that support goes if he is not in the race.

12. No, I think some Dean people will just avoid your poll. (nt)

17. I think so too

while Clark supporters will flock to it .. soz meaningless question in this venue.

well this doesn't say much for kerry, if he's polling with

sharpton, and braun. I like dean, I like clark, kerry is okay, but he seems to be a re-hash of dukakis. you know blah, blah, blah. when I see dean, I really don't give a shit whether we win or lose, I feel like somebody is going to give them hell. clark is like kerry to me, but he has moments, that kerry doesn't.

but with clark, I'm always worrying about what's around the corner.

19. We've got the same thing with Dean (they're my #1 and #2)

Much as I hate to admit - either one could either be fantastic OR a disaster. I wish I knew...

7. Only 33 total votes and you say that?

:eyes:

[Kazak]

6. Kucinich...

without question.

[Padraig18]

9. Clark.

:thumbsup:

[TLM]

10. I'd have to say Kerry...

Because while I do not agree with his support for the IWR, no child left behind, keeping parts of bush's tax cuts etc... Kerry is no doubt a dem and he could easily win.

Plus Kerry never said he felt murdering journalists was OK and he never worked as a lobbyist for defense contractors trying to profiteer off 9-11.

11. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.....

:boring:

[NewYorkerfromMass]

13. OMG we are now friends!

:toast:

[retyred]

14. What do you know that we don't?

The result would be the same as it is now, Clark wins hands down....but you knew this!!!

15. Edwards.

He's pretty damn likable, and has some great plans he talks about in detail. It used to be Kucinich until he got too annoying at all the debates.

[JohnKleeb]

16. My vote would be the same

[RetroLounge]

18. Clark

but since this will never be happening...

[kerry-is-my-prez]

20. Clark, Kerry, Edwards, Gephardt - in that order - IF there's no Dean...

Kucinich's social agenda is much more akin to my beliefs but I like Clark's national security experience and his knowledge of world affairs.

I wish we could have a Domestic President/Minister and a Foreign Affairs President/Minister. Of course, if Clark really sticks to this platform - then he's actually pretty good (pro-Kyoto, pro-affirmative action, pro-environment, compassionate on Criminal Justice).

[Egnever]

21. Seems to be coming down to that

Vote kick

[Padraig18]

22. Clark gets 69/111, as of 6:16 p.m., CST.

About what I expected.

Dean/Clark in '04! :)
