Will you vote for Artur Davis if he is the nominee for Governor?
Given his anti-HCR votes?

I certainly wouldn't, even if it meant letting a real Republican win. But that's just me, and I don't live in Alabama.

3. No, at least not in the primaries.
At one time, I would have considered it, but the man took a hard right a while back and hasn't stopped running since.

If he were to become the democratic nominee, though, I guess I would have to hold my nose and vote for him, especially if his opponent were Roy Moore.

5. if he were the nominee, it wouldn't be the primaries
And I don't think Roy Moore has a chance, even in Alabama.

So please get ready to hold your nose. :)

4. Yes, without a doubt.
Artur sucks. He panders to the right-wing, which will never vote for him in a million years.

Still, he's orders of magnitude better than any of the Republicans running for governor.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, I will vote for Ron Sparks in the primary. But if Davis wins the primary, I will back him fully.

I've voted for a handful of Republicans in the past, but that is a thing of the past. Republicans are evil, and I will take a DINO over a real Republican every time. I mean this. I will NEVER vote for a Republican again. Ever.

Hopefully, it won't come to that.

8. Artur: the Great Disappointment.
Only if Sparks loses the primary. I see nobodies and loons running as Republicans. Why add one more nobody to the list by endorsing Artur?

His rhetoric in the first campaign for Congress had me fired up. I campaigned for him. About three months after he had taken the oath, I never regretted anything so much in my life.

Lets see now who do the "real" Republican'ts have running: A crazed has-been turned out of office "judge", someone whose chief claim to fame is that his daddy played football at Auburn and went on to do the monkey dance as governor, some doctor of whom I know nothing, and someone who says they will take no salary. Am I missing one?

13. yeah but I'm not a resident and I don't fault him for his vote on HCR because AL is very
conservative. Very few people know that he's one of Obama's closest personal friends in congress. I think they met before they got into politics.
