I really wouldn't mind voting for either Clinton OR Obama. Am I fucked or what?
I like both candidates. Weird, huh? I must be an Obama cultist, right? Or a paid operative from the Hillary campaign? Or woefully naive? Or am I demanding a tacit loyalty oath with this seemingly innocuous post? Or am I a corporate shill? I used to like Edwards a lot; Am I a no-hoper throwing Edwards under the bus? Is my vote going to ensure McCain wins in November? Is magnanimity a sign of weakness? Am I a "pink tutu" Dem? Or...

Don't worry - I already know the answer is "yes" to all of the above.

1. Nope.
You're a Democrat --and a smart one as well.

2. You might be a YDD, see below.

ON EDIT ADD:
My version of a YDD is a pit bull defending our flag and all the good things for which it stands.

14. Scoot over please
and make room for me in your boat too! :hi: Actually I think we are going to need a very big boat. And I think it's a good thing because come November we had all better be on the same boat.

4. Nah
Dodd was my pick, so I'm a free-agent. I'm not going to have a problem voting for one or the other in the GE.

5. there are things I like and don't like about both
I just wish I would have had a chance to choose between more than two candidates who are pretty close on issues I care about.

What would DU be if we didn't try to pigeonhole people into oblivion?
A much better place for civil discourse is what.

6. Sounds like you're a Democrat
If my preferred candidate doesn't win, it doesn't mean I'm going to take my ball, go home, and sulk in the corner.

8. Well I certainly prefer one candidate over the other,
but that would never stop me from voting Dem in the GE as has been suggested by so many here lately.

Plus, it appears that I may have the opportunity to have voted for each of them depending upon who gets the final nod.

9. Vote!
No, I really don't care who wins. I would vote for either one of them. If I had to make a choice between the two, then I would vote for Hillary. As far as I am concerned they would both make great Presidents.

17. I guess I'm "all of the above" too!
I like things about each of them and I don't like things about each of them. Edwards was my candidate..and now, I'm undecided.

19. I'll vote for whoever gets the nomination -- PLEASE NO MCCAIN PRESIDENCY
I will march in the streets proclaiming the name of whoever gets the nom -- be it Clinton or Obama. Either of them will do a HELL OF A BETTER JOB than that horrible nasty John McCAIN.
