If leading Democrats wasn't like herding cats we could rock Michigan

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

All Michigan Dems should vote for Romney.

Dem votes don't count, but it's an open primary so Dems who cross-over can cast a meaningful vote.

If McCain loses Michigan to Romney he probably wouldn't get the nomination, and McCain would run 7-8 points stronger than Huckabee or Romney in the GE.

Dems have the votes to fuck the pugs royally in Michigan... even 10% of the Dem vote would do it. But it won't happen.

1. I'mm with you all the way

But if we would wind up with Romney, unless we nominate Edwards we would go to defeat, the religious right (some would vote with Edwards) but with other dem, all the religious right would run out to vote for Romney in order to defeat Roe V Wade... However I would like to see the dem. re register and give the republican a replay of what they have been doing

3. I sincerely believe the Mormon thing hurts with RW Christians

How else to explain Huckabee's ascendancy?

[BadgerLaw2010]

5. Oh it does. There's no need to think too hard about this.

Evangelicals and conservative Catholics cannot stand Mormons. Period.

2. Vote Thompson!

Get him some much needed momentum so we can run against a McCain/Thompson ticket!

McCain/Thompson: It's time for a nap.

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

4. But we couldn't make Thompson win

That would require about 80% of the Dem vote

[laconicsax]

9. He just needs enough of a bump to get

back in the race.

6. Why not vote Alan Keyes?

Now, there's a candidate I would like to stick the Republicans with. Romney is too dangerous. I don't want him within sniffing distance of the Oval Office. He and Giuliani are the two neocon candidates, and it's too risky to follow your strategy.

7. Let the dimwits sort out their pathetic candidates

Short of Diebold, they aren't in come 2009.

Mind you, I suspect we will have a diebolded election...but apparently the Dems in Congress have "more important business" to attend to.

8. This is a great idea!

[IronLionZion]

10. Oh I'm with you,

I am all about fucking with the Republicans. I really want us to run against Romney/Giuliani. McCain will be the toughest to beat.

11. Then who would get nominated for ...

... congress as well as all the state and local elections?

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

13. Good point. So you have to vote a whole party slate?

[wtmusic]

12. If you could get 10,000 dems to move to Montana for a year

we could pick up 3 electoral votes (kinda chilly this time of year) :scared:

[bpeale]

14. hey! don't make fun of my cats! I herd them quite well thank you!

(I have 8 & they herd just fine)

[Renew Deal]

15. I agree for another reason.

Electing Romney causes more FUD in the puke race, and that's a great thing.

[MichiganVote]

16. Nope, my vote will be for a Democrat and so will the others in out household

it will be a cold day in hell before I will vote for a republican

[seriousstan]

17. Yes, voter fraud is always a great idea. I rememer how many people here

were complaining about it in Iowa. Fucking Brilliant!

:sarcasm:

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

18. Hardly voter fraud

The rules say I can vote in the Republican primary.

The fact that there is no live Democratic primary makes voting in a real primary more attractive.

I cast my ballot for who I sincerely want to win the Republican primary.

Hard to see that as "fraud." It's a straight-up exercise for a person's voting rights.

In this case, the exercise of my right under the laws of Michigan to express that I want Romney to win the Michigan primary, which I do.

I don't like it when pugs do it, but so what? I don't like it when pugs vote at all, for anybody. But the fact I don't like it doesn't make it fraud.
