Say something nice about a candidate who isn't your first choice thread.

[calteacherguy]

I'll start by saying something nice about my 2nd choice candidate:

I like the way Obama is framing environnmental issues using religion. Jesus was a progressive, after all. "Keepers of the Earth," and all that. I hope it helps gain more universal support for the environmental movement, and efforts to slow down global warming.

O.K....who's next?

[JeffR]

1. I like Gravel's ties

They're nice.

[NoodleBoy]

2. my last choice candidates:

We need a few elected officials like Dennis Kucinich on both wings of the party to keep the it from ossifying.

Mike Gravel did a good deal of work for Alaska and shouldn't have waited so long to get involved again.

[Cleita]

3. Why should I do that?

I'm fighting enough for my near at the bottom candidate. Energy counts. I don't have that much.

[Kiouni]

4. Hillary does have a lot of experience.

That actually made me die a little in side. I hope you're happy.

5. Hillary does have a lot of experience.

That actually made me die a little in side. I hope you're happy.

[Vincardog]

6. I agree with every position I have heard from Dennis Kucinich IF AG will not run

he makes an acceptable second choice.

7. Well, Hillary's... well, she's...um..shes' unh ,,,got nice hair.

[Douglas Carpenter]

8. Sen. Clinton is a lot, lot, lot, lot, lot, lot, lot, lot, lot, lot lot less dangerous than Guiliani

and that is the understatement of the century.

[Lautremont]

9. A recording of Hillary's shrill cackle

will make an excellent and terrifying addition to my haunted house this Halloween.

(No, I didn't say "cackle.")

[monktonman]

10. Hillary's husband used to be president.......

and he can play the sax.

[WCGreen]

11. Chris Dodd really has a good head of hair...

Actually, I was able to meet and talk with Sen Dodd back in 1995...

He was the key note speaker for the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party's annual fundraiser...

Very nice man who articulated his positions with passion and grace...

[John Q. Citizen]

12. Ron Paul is right about the war and the Patriot Act, even if he's wrong about

everything else.

[PatSeg]

13. Chris Dodd

Good, decent man who fights for workers rights and organized labor.

[BlueIris]

14. Biden hasn't said anything too offensive...in a while...that I've caught.

[Apollo11]

15. Barack Obama made the best speech of the whole campaign up until now.

I mean his October 2nd speech on foreign policy "A New Beginning".

16. Biden is one hell of a campaigner

I don't care how he got here, or what he's done in Delaware to stay in office so long.
He stands tall on the playing field today, He's got the skills and he's tough as nails.

He hits me hard every time I hear him speak, I like the guy.I'm glad he's in the race.
I like the direction he pushes the discourse.

[robcon]

17. Either Obama or Edwards would make a good presdient.

Not as good as Clinton, though.

[Mother Of Four]

18. Love Gravel....

He brings freshness and isn't afraid to say what he's thinking. I just don't see him as "President"

[MethuenProgressive]

19. Obama/Edwards aren't as obsessively negative about Clinton as their DU supporters

But to be fair, I did read a few posts by Obama/Edwards supporters last week that didn't even mention Clinton at all.

[LWolf]

20. Biden and Richardson have good education plans. n/t

[sniffa]

21. hiLLary sure Loves power

and is insatiabLe in her quest for it.

[harun]

22. Hillary has the best political strategist on her team (Bill Clinton) (n/t)

[auburngrad82]

23. All of our candidates are better than all of the GOP candidates

That pretty much covers everyone.

[Stop Cornyn]

24. Kucinich has the best ideas, Obama embodies hope for change, Edwards is the most elecable progressiv

since RFK.

Two of those aren't my first choice, but I haven't figured out which two.
