For Barack Obama Supporters:

[Donkeykick]

When Barack Obama takes the nomination, and later on he does choose Hillary Clinton as his running-mate, and she accepts, would you still vote for the Barack Obama ticket in November?

[gateley]

1. Yes. I'm a Democrat. nt

[Kixel]

21. I'm with you

No question.

[Johnny__Motown]

2. I will vote for Barack no matter what.... but Hillary would make it far less enjoyable

[Labors of Hercules]

32. Exactly my feelings on the matter.

*nod*

[Mira]

3. I voted yes, because I would. But it is a fantasy of an idea.

[chknltl]

4. I'll be standing outside my voting place with a bag:

Patriotic Clothespins, $1.00. Red White and Blue, suitable for pinching ones nose in order to have both hands free for the voting process.
:patriot:

btw: I will be wearing one if I am forced to vote for Obama/Clinton '08 but make no mistake about it, I would vote for that ticket with only a bit more enthusiasm than a Clinton/Obama '08 ticket.

(OTOH if Senator Obama sensibly picks someone else, I may still find some use out of those clothespins for Republicans who are stuck voting for mCcain)

[David Zephyr]

5. Yes, but as someone else said, Barack will need food tasters.

With the food taster condition, the answer is yes. ;-)

[NotThisTime]

38. I'll submit myself to the job even...

[Pisces]

6. He will not offer it to her.

[mystieus]

7. I wish there were another option in your little poll..

[wileedog]

8. WIth the condition that Penn, Wolfson, McAuliffe. etc are kicked to the curb

And Bill is appropriately muzzled.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

35. ...and all the new VP powers are stripped and the Prez papers are released. nt

[Mass]

9. If he did it, I would. I just hope he will not make this error.

[newmajority]

10. Only if I was personally in charge of his Secret Service detail

Seriously though, you cannot have CHANGE when you are contnuing to appease the DLC. No Clintons on this ticket.

[Tribetime]

11. I'm sure if he did, it would mean she gives us the best chance to win

I trust his judgement 100% he hasn't been wrong yet.

[gcomeau]

12. You need a fourth option.

"I find this scenario so preposterous that I can't give a reasonable answer to the question."

Clinton is not going to be the VP pick.

[ZinZen]

13. What am I supposed to do?

Vote for McBush? I don't think so.

[beezlebum]

14. yes

but i can't say i wouldn't be disappointed and would lose some trust that was difficult to build up. he has run on that "change" thing.

either way. i would STILL be thrilled, b/c it's the end of this miserable 8 yrs. godems

[Lady-Damai]

15. It's not gonna happen. n/t

[ORDem]

33. Agreed. Barack is not stupid. And unlike Hillary he actually cares about the party. nt

[galledgoblin]

16. of course

but if anyone lays a finger on Obama, I'll never look at Clinton without suspicion again.

[Lilith Velkor]

17. Wow look at all those yes votes

Did DU finally get that enema?

[stillcool]

18. I always vote...

[papapi]

19. That would be like offering it to Dick Cheney. He won't do it.

[TahitiNut]

20. How much is the budget for the Secret Service?

:eyes:

[Clotilderougemont]

22. Ouch! Maureen Dowd exposed what a phoney Obama is tonight

Obama breezed through West Virginia, the state he couldn’t charm even wearing a flag pin and promising to invest in “clean coal.” Fast Barry shot some pool Monday afternoon at Schultzie’s Billiards in South Charleston, including prophetically sinking an eight-ball in the pocket, and then fled from Hillary territory to pursue white, blue-collar workers in battleground states and convince them not to vote for John McBush.

[FrenchieCat]

23. That's not how I read it.......

But then, I obviously have a different view of the world than you do.

[iamthebandfanman]

25. said the person with 2 posts... n/t

[underpants]

31. Suddenlly Marueen loves her some Clintons

The DC crowd is clearly scared of the uncertainty Obama brings

Welcome to DU :hi:

[iamthebandfanman]

24. i wouldnt be thrilled, but of course. n/t

[Lena inRI]

26. Hillary needs Barack more than Barack needs Hillary. . .

OBAMA/CLARK2008

Nuf said.

:kick: :kick: :kick: :kick: :kick:

[IsItJustMe]

27. It would tell me that Obama was a straight up hypocrit about a different type of politics. It would

be more of the same, for me.

[tekisui]

28. I will vote Dem, but I don't want to vote for Hillary, at all.

[TBF]

29. I voted yes, but with Hillary it's a losing ticket.

[RichardRay]

30. Hell, I'd vote for it if it was the other way around!!

Not quite as happily, but I'd certainly do it.

[baldguy]

34. 23 McCain supporters here on DU

What is the world coming to?

[liberaldem4ever]

36. Having Obama be my President is worth it

no matter who he choses as a running mate. But I hope that he picks someone else.

[Robyn66]

37. Unlike a lot of Hillary supporters

I will support the party whoever the nominee and VP are.

[mmonk]

39. Yes but I won't be thrilled.
