Poll question: Hillary Clinton vs A Bag of Hammers
Since we're doing this, why not get right down to the nitty-gritty?

For the record, this poll is intended as satire. I'm not a Clinton supporter, but creating these polls to show that anybody can get more support than Clinton is getting old, no?

Hillary is #8 of 8 on my preference list. But excessive Hillary-bashing could come back to haunt us next year, don't you think?

If we can't have "Kucinich '08," then let's at least have "a DEMOCRAT '08." Not Ron Paul, not Ralph Nader, and not a bag of hammers. But hey, since people insist, let the voting begin...

12. Easy. The Bag of Hammers didn't vote to authorize the Iraq War...
...nor possible military action against Iran. Nor a "No Insurance Company Left Behind" health plan that basically forces Americans, by law, to enrich the coffers of Big Insurance.

Oh, and the Bag of Hammers doesn't cackle, either.

the Pentagon once paid $475,000 for the bag of hammers. Could be a scandal.

36. I would not vote for Hillary.
Edwards is my preference, but I would support another nominee. However, I would not support Hillary. If Hillary wins the nomination, I will support the Republican, and hope our country can hold on for four years until we can put a Democrat in office who will make changes in Washington. We must have a change in Washington. I sincerely believe that Hillary will only tie our country deeper to special interests and a small group of elite Washington deal-makers. I do not believe that the American middle class can survive much more of that, to say nothing of what will happen to the poor without change.

Many people do not watch politics closely. Many will vote from a soundbite. Unfortunately, this means that the only way to wake them up and get them to look at Hillary's double-talk, dishonesty, and ties to the powerful, is to be blunt.

I'll need one to hit myself over the head in frustration if I have to support GOP Lite over GOP heavy.
