hey Progressive New Mexicans... Tuesday's caucus....
What are you thoughts and feelings about who to vote for on Tuesday?

I was a Kucinich supporter and still think he had some of the very best ideas out there. Around early Jan I started feeling inclined toward Edwards. Now, I'm inclined toward Obama, Others??

2. what happens to any primary delegates/votes
for a candidate who has dropped out --like Edwards or Kucinich, particularly if they don't return to the race? Would it be a "wasted" vote?

3. Same order as you
While the remaining candidates are not nearly progressive enough to truly heal the damage, they are still light years ahead of all the republicans.

Krugman's last article on health care really makes it closer for me, but I can't forget the war-drum pounding that Hillary did long after the truth about the reasons for war were easily available. Obama will get my support today.

4. I voted Obama
He may not be a progressive as Edwards/Kucinich but he's definitely more so than Hillary. He got my vote today when I went to the caucus. My caucus location was packed with people voting....I've never seen a line in my life to vote for something in New Mexico. Sad though I didn't see many (if any) people around my age (I'm 22) out there in line.

6. Our caucus location was jammed and everyone was smiling.
:hi:
There were voters of every age. The line was so long we thought we'd be there for hours, but it moved quickly thanks to wonderful organization. Obama got my vote.
