1. Me! Me! I'm undecided! Maybe apathetic is a better word. nt

2. actually I am
I'll vote for the eventual nominee, but living in Texas I really didn't think it was going to be a deal breaker. I thought things would be wrapped up by Super Tuesday. :shrug:

5. present
uhh.... guess I shouldn't say that. It seems to have new meaning now. :P

On a serious note, I am at a complete loss as to how I will vote. So I raise my hand here in this thread!

7. please do your own thinking and research
I really feel passionate about this, now. I have posted elsewhere that I teach a class of 450 students at a major university, and last week, of those 450, only 10 (TEN!!!) said they were following the primary or had done any independent research whatsoever on the candidates (which included reading any candidate's website--let alone all of them--or even reading biased media internet reports!).

However, nearly all of them plan to vote. That is the scary part.

Here are some great unbiased sites: factcheck.org, mediamatters.org, Bill Moyers' Journal, pollster.com

I know I will feel much better if my candidate doesn't win the nomination but was beaten by someone whose supporters did their own thinking.

8. I was leaning towards Edwards - you know how that played out
I'm one of those who would have jumped on the Gore bandwagon immediately, so I really have not made up my mind. Considering I live in Indiana, I'm thinking that my vote won't make much difference. I will still vote in the Primary, however.

If you take everything that you read on DU as gospel, then there is no candidate worth voting for.

Ain't the Primary season great? ;)

11. More like disinterested than undecided.
Looks like it's going to end up the "moderate" right vs "not-so-moderate" right in the GE.

14. I'm undecidend...
I wanted Richardson, then Edwards, now I don't much care as long as the eventual nominee can win in November. Even if I do decide, I think I'll keep it a secret around here, I just can't seem to dredge up the level of vitriol against any democrat even if they aren't my choice, and I'm saving the energy it would take to defend a democrat from other dems for November to use against the real "enemy" of the American people, the republican party...

15. I am unimpressed by Hillary and Obama
it is very distressing to see DUers fighting over these two when neither one of them warrants the kind of adulation they are receiving

19. Moi.
Still.

Not about November. It's a foregone conclusion - whoever the Dem nominee is, I'm his/her girl.

It's just this one hurdle on the way there...

Shit.

But I'd rather be in this predicament than that of the republi-CONS. With me, it's deciding who has the most positives overall, while the "other-siders" are all struggling to figure out who has the fewest negatives. They'll have to figure who they're willing to hold their noses and vote for. Not the case with me! I like both my people.
