If your candidate doesn't get the democratic nod...
will you vote for whoever gets it?

Will you vote your conscience (your candidate if he jumps to independant or just not vote)?

or

Will you vote for whats best for America (Getting Bush out)?

2. I wouldn't go that far
But I will vote for the Dem, anyway I think my state is almost a guarantee for the Dem (Oregon) so it won't be too surprising.

3. I will support which ever of these ten fine human beings...
gets the nominee!!! They will all do good things for this country!
And, yes, even Lieberman will do good too; not as good as the others but much better than Bush!

By the way, Wes Clark is my first choice!

6. any of our Democratic candidates would be 100% better than Bush
and I mean Lieberman too. Compared to this? Lieberman would be great.

4. My conscience says vote for the nominee.
I have no problem reconciling the two--though, I admit, if it's **choke** Lieberman, I might have a little trouble pulling the lever.

14. You have every right to be proud of Dennis,
I support Clark,but whoever gets the Democratic nomination I will support 100%.It should be a question for all the Democratic candidates,on weather or not if they lose the nomination they would run as independants.They should all be ready to pledge to the party that if they don't get the nomination,they will not run on independant ticket.

10. My conscience tells me that
any living creature (in possession of some modicum of a brain stem) that is one nanometer to the left of Bush, is better than Bush. I will be disappointed if the nom is not one of my several favs, but anyone is better than the current monstrosity occupying the White House.

Just as in 2000, there is no place in 2004 for hissy fits and dreams of Utopia and games. This is deadly serious.

12. only a few
the only democrats I could see myself voting for are Kucinich, Sharpton, Mosley-Braun and maybe Dean. The rest although better than Bush are just more of the same.

17. I'm voting for the Dem nominee
And I pray there's no third party candidate (unless the third party candidate hurts shrub and helps us get him out).

18. No loyalty oaths from men, certainly not at this point
If the war-vote candidates want MY vote they'll need to disavow their war vote, period. For anyone who objects, go tell your candidate to get with the program, and see Congressman Murtha who DID disavow his war vote the other day.

Scott Ritter said today, NO, the world is NOT a better place without Saddam Hussein -- it's a more dangerous place. Making the world a more dangerous place is a National Security issue. They failed. Just as Rove put National Security at risk. There is tremendous equivalency in my opinion between the two actions.
