If you were a Democrat, now I know it's hard for some of you, but try. Use that imagination mother nature gave you to the fullest. If you were a Democrat, who would you vote for.

That's a very cool tool. Charlie Rose looks like he hasn't slept in a month, though. :biggrin:

But I'm not a Democrat, so my vote would be from a more conservative viewpoint than such, so it means what?
Who will win? Hillary.
If a Democrat were to win the Presidency who would I, a conservative, wish it to be? Probably the most conservative, Richardson or other.
Would that be any surprise? Probably not.

Stio, I know your imagination is stunted, but I hope others know the definition of pretend to be a Democrat.

I'll go with Richardson, though I was tempted to vote for Obama. I don't disagree with some of Richardson's stances...on the surface.

I voted "other".
I would consider Lieberman...

Well, I suppose I could try and imagine my life as Ethics, but I really draw the line at seeing myself as a prissy, pink thonged, tranny boy prancing into NY bath houses and announcing "here I am boys, come and ravish my hairlessness!", thank you very much. Just call me stunted, and sane. :P

I am a Democrat. I just try not to let it get out of hand and go a little ideolically crazy per "party" lines or Movon.org!
But if I voted based upon solely upon party affiliation then I would vote for the person who had the best chance to win for my party--and that would be Clinton at this point. So I answered the poll accordingly.

Bravo! :clap:
I did the same, btw. I think she has the best shot out of all Democrats.

That's how we're supposed to vote? Damn I thought we were supposed to vote based on the issues! I voted Edwards since he's cute. LMAO

Bravo for what? He IS a Democrat by his own admission. Only the Republicans and Libertarians have to "pretend".
How strange you are today.

Bah, too conservative. If I'm really going to go batshit crazy, I might as well go all the way and vote for Kucinich. ;)

Does the fact that Hillary has only held some sort of true political position for 8 years now mean anything? I mean did it count when she was the wife of a politician, that she should be taken seriously running for the Presidency? I wonder what Dems think about that?

I'd have to go with Richardson. Seems like Senators don't get elected President.

No more than it matters to the Republicans that Giuliani has never held any sort of national political position, or even state-level. Eight years as senator is plenty of experience, and yes, the years as first lady do, to some extent, count. Hillary certainly wasn't the keep quiet and look pretty kind of wife (I know some of you are about to make a clever crack! ;)). But I don't think the "experience" issue really matters to anyone about any candidate, if they generally like the person and the policies and think they'd be good for the country.

As did I. And one big thing in her favor, instant diplomatic credibility.
At this point, for me, it totally depends on who choose who for a running mate.

Sure...it means her chances of winning the election are slim. Only 15 Presidents have come from the Senate. ;)
Seriously though, as much as I won't vote for her, I'll concede that she's more then qualified for the office. In fact, I would say that pretty much all of the candidates are qualified based on having at least some political experience.

"I'd vote for Edwards too. He has a genuine smile and I think he's an amazing human to remain in the race while his poor wife is dying of cancer! I feel so sorry for him! He is so brave! Besides, Hillary is such a bitch, and Obama has lost touch with his cultural roots!"
Is this how it's done?
