15. Hmm..
While I wouldn't put it quite that way, the word "enabler" does come to mind.

Maybe they're fans of Scalia or something?

I will vote for the Dem nominee. But I won't be all that happy if it's HRC.

WHAT? GOP will continue the dynasty if you don't vote for the Democratic nomination.

23. Only if Mittens Romney is the nominee
He's Jeb & Poppy's candidate. And Mittens' Bain Capital has recently partnered with Poppy's Carlyle Group on several corporate acquisitions. He might have been born a spirit child of Elohim, but he's been grafted into the Bush Crime Family Tree. Just as the Clintons have.

18. The Presidential election will be irrelevant in Indiana
Our Democrats will concentrate on putting some distance between themselves and the unpopular Hillary, and get themselves reelected.

I know what I will be doing! We have to retain the House seat vacated by the untimely death of Julia Carson, reelect those Democrats that were first elected to the House two years ago, gain more seats in the statehouse, and the most important mission: defeat Governor Daniels' bid for reelection.

As you can see, we got a full plate already, the more so when one is burdened with the Clinton name at the top of the ticket.

22. Hillary will fire Howard Dean to consolidate power. I will not enable that.
If we have a Republican President and a solidly Democratic congress and Howard Dean I can live with that.

25. you sum my thoughts up rather well
if it looks like we will carry congress then wild horses couldn't drag me to the polls for her.

Of course that brings to the table the thought that if she gets the nod we will be faced with a questionable outcome when it comes to the congressional seats so we may be forced to vote her in just to stave off the republican congress she brings with her.

26. I didn't vote because I think this kind of poll is a loser poll
It was this kind of thinking that allowed Bush to wiggle into the White House.

Let's think like winners!

27. you need another response
"I honestly don't know yet"

After eight years of Bush destruction, it is so sad to think that we might end up with a Dem candidate I can't really support. I keep debating this with myself. If it is Obama or Clinton, are they better than another Repug? They seem pretty much the same to me. If the nominee is Edwards, I'll work my fingers to the bone for him. Either of the other two and I might not vote.

Maybe it doesn't matter. Our votes probably won't count anyway.

Time to leave...

Canada? Argentina? Norway?

32. I have a feeling the repbs are going to get back in . After all
the bad blood this past week between BO and Bill I've heard many Edwards & Clinton people say they would never vote for Bo. They don't like his tactics. Well, we don't have to worry about BO or anyone whining about this election. BO won so he's happy, no whining tonight.

31. I will not vote for her under any circumstances.
But I will vote for all the progressives I can find down-ticket, to make things unfortable for the repukes, if they should win, or uncomfortable for her if she should.

41. To Sum It Up
Just my opinion of course, but, it seems Barack supporters are refusing to vote for Hillary and Hillary supporters are refusing to vote for Barack and since I see such a divide I believe McCain will win the general election. Reason being, I havn't seen that big split in the Republican party or that racial divide I'm seeing in the democrat party. Of course, once McCain is in office we will be in Iraq for 4 more years and any idea about health care for the needy or education supplements can be forgotten.

40. There are 58 fucking morons on DU, at the very least.
Anyone else want to be stood up and counted as a fucking moron?
Please. End the Bush-Clinton dynasty...yeah, cause President Mittens would be SUCH a departure from the last 8 years.

45. All I'm saying
is the Clinton followers are staunch supporters of her and they will either not show up or do a Clinton write-in. I'm a Clinton supporter but am probably one of the few that would vote for whoever the democrat nominee is. I'm speculating of course, but, I've been a Clinton supporter ever since Bill was Attorney General in Arkansas and the Clinton faithful are die hard supporters, but, then again I could be wrong, just an opinion.

if they decided to do that.
