Who would you vote for in the 2012 Republican presidential primary?

[Historic NY]

1. None I can't vote in NY.

[FarLeftFist]

3. Same here. I too am a NY'er.

[madinmaryland]

2. I'm a registered Democrat. Can't and won't vote in a puke primary.

[LoZoccolo]

4. So am I, but I could help set them up to lose if there are no competitive Democratic primaries.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. I would rather fall on my short sword than ever vote for them.

Period.

[LoZoccolo]

7. You could think of it as voting against the candidate with the best chance.

[Timbuk3]

6. I'd vote for Bachmann if she gets in

Because I like to laugh, and I think the only politician dumber than Sarah Palin would make for great comedy.

[Liberal_in_LA]

10. Bachmann would make for an entertaining election season

[lunasun]

11. same here

[LuvNewcastle]

21. I think it would be a good idea to vote for her

if she has a chance. If someone had a chance against Obama, you can bet there would be GOPers voting for him. We have open primaries in my state, and I'm going to vote for the worst candidate who has a viable chance.

8. Tweedle Dee

[Renew Deal]

12. I think it would depend on what the race looked like

But in NY I can't vote.

[proud2BlibKansan]

13. I would write in Mickey Mouse

14. The problem with voting in the Republican primary

is that you get a Republican ballot so you can't vote for your choice of Democratic candidates in other elections.

Here in CA they are going to try something new and if I understand it correctly the top two vote getters, regardless of party, face off in the general election. So in theory you could get two republicans to choose from. Just another example of the joys of the Initiative process.

So I'll stick to voting Democratic in the primaries. Though I don't think Democrats can cross over and vote Republican in the CA primaries anyway.

15. My choice

is Andy Gump.I am sure there are some seniors that remember Mr Gump.

17. We have closed primaries in Arkansas. You must choose your primary.

And I think you have to choose the primary that is your party declaration on your voter reg.

Nonetheless - if I HAD to vote in the Republican primary, I might vote for Ron Paul - just because of his libertarian side.

But I don't have to make that choice.

[Iggo]

18. Palin.

A no brainer.

[TheCowsCameHome]

19. Bachmann.

The nuttiest one.

[HopeHoops]

20. Write in Bozo The Clown - that's a much more serious candidate than anything in the GOP.

[WinkyDink]

22. This question is incomprehensible.
