Poll question: Which of the following tickets do you like best for 2008?

[bookman]

1. Where...

..is none of the above?

[BlueEyedSon]

2. Kucinich will get 5%

[Padme Amidala]

5. Dennis would get a landslide

After the Kerry disaster, only a Democrat we can trust will be able to pull the voters together. Kucinich is the one candidate who has the best chance of winning.

[Califooyah Operative]

7. the kerry disaster..

where he got more votes than any democrat in history? Or the kerry disaster where he came closer to unseating a war time president than anyone else in history?

[Padme Amidala]

8. Where people believed he had the integrity to fight for them.

They went out of their way to vote for a candidate that did not meet their desires but was a settle-for because he was a guaranteed win. The masses will never trust us again if we don't pick a Kucinich-type-candidate. Next time they will demand proven integrity and that means they will demand Dennis before they will trust a Democratic Presidential candidate again.

[seito]

41. Or the Kerry disaster

where he actually beat ** by a landslide, and the vote was manipulated by RW corporations that own the machines. :eyes:

[Albert Einstein]

13. I will second the landslide part.

Dennis normally wins in a 50-50 district by 75% in the general elections. I'm certain his victory in the 2008 race for the White House will be no exception.

[Constitution]

34. Of course Dennis will win big. Good list of candidates.

Keep up the good posting.

[Syrinx]

3. none

I really want to win.

[saltpoint]

4. I don't believe Dennis Kucinich would be a poor --

-- president at all, but I don't believe U.S. voters are open-minded enough to vote for him. I see a lot of Paul Wellstone's many strengths in Dennis Kucinich, which means he's got a lot of respect from the Left and not much at all from the Redsters.

Of the tickets you gave us, I took the one with RFK, Jr., just because I see in him a public servant even more liberal than his father or Uncle John, and I would love to hear him in a national debate forum take on his GOP counterpart. But the ticket is a demographic fantasy -- a good, liberal fantasy, but a fantasy just the same.

I would love to see Dennis Kucinich do in Ohio what Howard Dean is doing for us nationally -- build the party's ideological muscle back up to where we can fend for ourselves against the scurrilous slanders of the Swift Boat Liars, the turdheads at Fox News, and the Bush Family Evil Empire generally sliming us as freedom-haters.

The Democratic Party in Ohio is in something of a mess and we could sure use Dennis Kucinich to help restore it to a vibrant organization once again.

[Padme Amidala]

6. Excellent poll. They are all good choices.

It's hard to decide. I'm sure Dennis will make the right choice for a running-mate.

[Fovea]

9. However,

I think that Dennis would be better as veep for Boxer, whose extraordinary leadership has been an inspiration.

I think Kucinich as veep is the man to spearhead the reform of the energy and arbitrage oligarchs and re-engage the flacid SEC and hamstrung GAO.

I also think he could be a phenominal resource with a good State dpt head like Albright or Carter and a new head of Commerce like Rbt Reich,Clinton's Labor Sec. Dick Gephardt for Sec Labor.

Bill Gates at Education, Wes Clark as SecDef, Ritter at HSD, Bill Clinton, UN ambassador, Edwards as A.G., Cleland at HHS.

[Clarkie1]

10. Kucinich/Boxer!

Because she's my beloved senator and how she stood up to defend our voting rights!

[Albert Einstein]

12. This is a new turn.

All genuine support for Dennis is welcome.

[Clarkie1]

14. I'm not saying I'd vote for Dennis in the primary

Although I do respect him a lot.

I'm saying given the choices presented in this poll, and only these choices, I have stated my preference.

[zann725]

35. Durbin/Boxer!

That'd be one kickin' team!

[RapidCreek]

36. It sure as hell would....To bad the DLC won't let it happen.

RC

[Albert Einstein]

11. Kucinich and someone who is not in Congress. 2008 is the year.

We don't want to lose Boxer from the Senate or Maxine from the House. It's bad enough that Ohio will have to look for another representative when Kucinich wins his usual 75% victory, this time in the 2008 Presidential race.

[Radical Activist]

15. wow. Those are all excellent dream choices

I picked Kucinich/RFK Jr. RFK is an amazingly powerful advocate for the environment and wresting the government out of the hands of corporations.

[mermaid]

16. Why The FUCK Do All Of These Tickets Have KUCINICH At The Top??

KUCINICH CANNOT FUCKING WIN!!!

[cidliz2004]

19. You really need to chill

All of us are suffering for the loss. All of us have personal stakes in this. Freaking out and screaming (in print) at people of opposing views are not going to help you in any way shape or form. You are acting like Bush who doesn't want to listen to any apposing views. The difference is that Bush is in power, you are not. Bush isn't screaming at people, you are (in print).

If you want to get your message across, don't draw blood.

So, you have to move back in with your parents, you have parents many people don't -

So you cannot find a job, you have a computer and apparently intelligence use it to start in something else. You are not eating dog food like many seniors to get by, feel lucky.

Hey, my candidate didn't get to the top either. He was torpedoed by the Dems, he had a chance and was stabbed in the back - anger??? Please there is enough of that to go around, but how productive is it? Think of how you can work towards fixing our voting system THAT is what defeated the Democrats, not the 1% or whatever else slim margin you want to freak out about. The Democrats will NEVER win unless #1 they learn how to manipulate the voting system and/or #2 win by an overwhelming majority.

Oh, and by the way, I have run across many many obnoxious Edward supporters. Edwards, to me was WAY TOO INEXPERIENCED and not the right guy for the right time, but - hey - I'm not wasting my time screaming at the lack of logic for supporting a less than 1 term Senator who didn't deliver ANYBODY from the south and who didn't even work his whole 1st term before vying for the top job?!

I do have some integrity and I would like to support somebody that I can respect and agree with. By the way, according to your logic, Jesus should have just shut up and gone away and all of his followers were losers and betrayers. Just because Jesus "didn't click" with the popular majority was not reason to crucify him. People who followed Jesus followed with their hearts and souls only to weaken at the end, much like Kucinich people (and, I'd like to think, some of the rest of us). You want to win, maybe winning in the long run is actually losing. Look inward and do some soul searching and chill. Please for your own good.

[bowens43]

17. Kucinich will never be president.

[genius]

27. 2008 is his year. The best candidate can win. Freepers hate him.

They hate him because he stands for the real and only opposition to Bush.

[goodhue]

18. Other

Kucinich - Lee (Barbara)

[Walt Starr]

20. None of the above

I want to win.

[cidliz2004]

24. Ditto

[B0S0X87]

28. I second that

He would make the McGovern debacle look like a nailbiter.

[ArtVandaley]

21. Since I love losing . . .

They'd all be great. Gore's loss was ok, but since he actually won it wasn't that good. Losing the Senate in 2002 was good, but it was still too close. 2004 was a solid loss, but still, too close. Kucinich would be perfect. I'd love to only win two or three states. That would be great for the country and the party.

[faithfulcitizen]

22. hehehehehehe....good one!

:silly:

[simcha_6]

23. I seriously doubt any would win.

[Robeson]

25. None of the above...

...given those choices, Republicans wouldn't even have to fix it next time.

[NoPasaran]

26. Kucinich/Kucinich

Since this already presumes a fantasy world, why limit Dennis to only one spot on the ticket?

[lojasmo]

29. Kucinich would be a GREAT president, but....

A very POOR national candidate for the presidency.

[machiado]

30. none of these

[independentchristian]

31. If Kucinich is not President or Vice-President...

...then what job would you like to see him have in an administration?

Secretary of State?

What?

[Padraig18]

32. None of the above.

I'd like to win.

[Crunchy Frog]

33. Out of the choices offered,

I would go with Kucinich/Boxer.

[JNelson6563]

37. They all suck

I'm tired of losing. sorry.

[DemGirl7]

38. don't like any of the choices..

I'm sorry, but I'm not into Representives and Senators running for President...I just don't think they have a chance, plus Kucinich was somewhat of the oddman out in the democratic party, I see him more of a Green than a Democrat...don't get me wrong, he's done alot great things, but I don't think he would get any votes in the south and midwest, mean if Kerry did crappy in those areas in 2004, I don't think Kucinich has a even better chance, and no matter what, you need some votes in those areas of the country to win.

[iwantmycountryback]

39. Kucinich has 0 chance of winning a general election

If you rail against Hillary because you think she has no chance of winning an election, you can't be serious about Kucinich.

[seito]

40. Looks like you hit every possible combination

:eyes:

Seriously, it is too early to think about 2008.

[WI_DEM]

42. Kucinich-Edwards would be the best balance

Boxer is great, but too much like Kucinich. I think we would need a little balance.
