Poll question: DU 2008 Presidential Primary Poll ... Who would you support as of today? |
|
Edited on Thu Mar-23-06 04:34 PM by mzmolly
I've added Al Gore b/c I think he can be persuaded. The other names have been taken from ABC's "Presidential Invisible Primary Ratings." I'm taking the top few Dems and adding a few others for our resident sock puppets and/or independents. If your choice is not listed, please post who you support.
I don't wish to "debate" here, but to get a feel for those who are participating today.
*** I wouldn't mind a K and R now and again? *** ;)
Thanks
:patriot:

83. Gore/Feingold would have been an awesome ticket in '00 |
|
Feingold on the bottom would have gotten the party's base more firmly behind Gore and plus it would have done the same with Jewish voters as Lieberman. Gore/Wellstone would have done this even better ticket because Wellstone was more well known by the party's liberal base. 2/3rds of Nader's vote share would have been lost due to the prospect of Wellstone or Feingold being a heartbeat away from the presidency.

But no matter what, when a Dem wins back the WH I will be in Washington DC for the inauguration with my little girl perched on my soldiers. She'll turn 5 in January 2009 so there's a chance she'll remember the day.
On edit: Which means she'll also remember her Mommy crying her eyes out, too. She'll ask why and I'll be proud to tell her it's because we're getting our country back.

20. Clark is the one with his eye firmly on 2006 |
|
He hasn't concentrated on raising money for himself, but he's consistently been there for Democrats across the country (he just was raising money for Democrats in Ohio and he keynotes the North Dakota State Democratic Convention on April First for example).
But I am proud to support Clark for 08. He is a man with the courage of his convictions, who speaks directly and never dumbs down his message. He is not a product or the servant of a Party or Special Interest machine, and he appeals to voters across the board in every region of the nation. I think Clark can break through the Republican noise machine. He has done amazingly well at doing that during his FOX commentary appearances. Our nation will still be in a mess, and the world will still be a dangerous place in 2008, made more so by the current Bush regime. I think voters will trust the Presidency to Clark, but for me electability is just sweet gravy, I think Clark will make an excellent President.

37. You're right, Tom..... |
|
All of the other potential candidates are blowing their horns for themselves, but General Clark is doing the right thing by campaigning to get control of one or both houses of Congress. If the Dems don't get some majority in Congress, there probably won't be any Dem in the White House and we'll be stuck exactly where we are for ??? years.
Clark is the extraorginary strategist that we need, and he sets out the proper priorities to get where the Dems need to go to win "anything". That's one reason he's doing the FAUX net gig....
He's got more under that "24 karat" silver "dome" than most people realize. He wasn't the NATO Supreme Allied Commander Europe because he was just tootin' his own horn....he had to govern ALL of the NATO allied troops in ALL OF EUROPE....housing, schools, health care, etc. He was the "governor" (if you will) in charge of about anything a state governor would. And if he hadn't worked his a-- off, he certainly wouldn't have accomplished what he has.... He's on more corporate boards than most any governor or senator I've heard of.
Give his credentials some thought....he's our best opportunity to change this country back to what it could be....the best!

He hasn't declared officially, well, a wishful vote. He's sincere that he watches out for Elizabeth's health and his kids first. If his spouse Elizabeth got sick again, (goodness gracious)he would not consider running again for one moment in her need to continue to get well.
:loveya: JRE
Meanwhile, I'm glad JRE's out there fightin' for the rest of us regarding middle class and poverty issues...and trying to help some smaller Dems with a little bit of fund raising to give their campaigns some good ads in running for the State houses. State laws are sometimes more powerful than National ones, you know.
A nice poll in general. Thanks for posting it.

52. The first thing he'd do is cancel all Halliburton contracts and KBR. |
|
He'd put all contracts up for bid and get rid of everything possible and trim the fat. We'd have a leaner less expensive army. Most important of all...he'd find a way for us to get out of Iraq!!!! If anyone can do it...he can.

I wasn't real surprised she said she wasn't going to be running, but I was surprised said she would not be on the ticket at all. She said it pretty flatly.

A lot can happen between now and the start of the primary season. Certainly the 2006 will determine whether the Democratic Party is already on life support.
Watch the census and you will see the mass migration - and electoral votes - from the blue north and northeast, to the red south and southeast.
As many have observed - all politics is local. As long as we do not have draft, the war in Iraq, the deficit, the wiretapping and the antics of Libby do not touch the personal lives of most voters. Certainly not the lives of Karl Rove's crowd for whom "baby killing" and "perverts" resonate a lot more immediately and personal.
Until we leave the talks about censure and impeachment and wiretapping aside and start talking about schools, and heath care, and jobs, and retirement, and make it personal, we will continue to lose members of Congress.
So I would like to see how presidential wannabe handle the 2006 elections, and how they plan to make it personal, to the voters. And, no, not by saying, like Kerry "how they personally oppose to abortion" and perhaps even to gay marriage, but to frame the questions in a way that matter.
Oh, and this time last cycle, Joe Lieberman topped everyone's list.

85. Good name for a board game |
|
You could have the game board be all these red states and red state functions and red state national monuments and national parks and pro war rallies and the object is to try to find Joe, who's got to be hiding in there somewhere.
"Where's Lieberman?!"

94. Yes it is....as he would have only gotten your vote. |
|
So doesn't matter if he's on there or not.
You will have to go post on some conservative sites to get a rally for "Bye"! :hi:

The name of the forum is Democratic Underground, I thought. Let me check again. Is it the Green Forum? No. Is it the Republican Forum? No.

My dream ticket. However I wouldn't cry if Feingold, Edwards or Clinton got the primary nod.

99. How About Clark/Richardson? |
|
That would be a really good ticket and draw a lot of the Hispanic vote. It would certainly get mine.
The one thing I don't want to do is weaken ourselves in either house of Congress, but especially not the Senate. That knocks out Clinton, Feingold, Warner, McCain and Kerry.
A Gore/Clark or Clark/Gore ticket would certainly be interesting, but I can't see either of them being willing to settle for second banana.
Clark/Edwards shows promise, with the possible benefit of 8 years to groom Edwards for the reigns of power.
Interesting how nobody seems to have mentioned Dean. I suppose that is an example of how even we moderates and liberals are susceptible to the right wing media juggernaut and it's endless propaganda.

100. The top three votegetters in this poll |

barely register on scientific, national polls of Democrats.
What does that tell us?

ABC is a media outlet, they conducted the poll I noted in my OP, they decided the content/context/candidates. I added Al Gore and Feingold for the reasons I've noted above.
I guess I don't find any poll too scientific at this point given we don't even know who's running.

110. Scientific as opposed to an internet poll on DU |
|
I'm not quibbling with your poll questions. I just find it intriguing that in poll after poll of Democrats nationally, Hillary Clinton leads the bunch (and yes I know much of that is name recognition), but General Clark and Russ Feingold don't even register out of single digits.
DU polls, however, tell quite a different story.
Which leads to me believe that either all the Hillary supporters here do not bother to vote in DU polls, or DU is seriously out of synch with the mood of national Democrats across the country.
I don't know which is the correct answer.

111. I don't think those two scenarios have to be the only scenarios. |
|
I think you hit on it when you said "name recognition."
I'd be interested to see Hilary poll against Gore on a national level.

You will get a lot of laughter and snickers, and perhaps a bird or two.
