I do not care who gets the Democratic nomination!
I just no longer am even concerned about it. It just does not matter to me...

1. I really like your sig
but it would feel pretty shitty if I had to vote for Clinton at this point. Not saying I wouldn't....

2. At this point I am not sure what I will do in November. Just being
honest. I have become so disgusted with the Democratic Party, that I just don't know. But at least I can get completely off of the primaries, because I just don't care anymore...

:hi:

7. I have been voting since 1972 and have never voted for a
Republican for anything - period. I would not start now. :rofl:

13. Yeah and it is a laugh. When I even think of anyone voting for that
old brain-damaged gas-bag it makes me laugh! I am convinced that so few Republicans will even go to the polls that a theft will not even be possible. I can hear it now,

"Uh, Karl, we just got the vote count in. It looks like John got 52."

"52 million votes! Is that all?! How can we swing a steal with a measly 52 million votes...?"

"Uh...no, Karl...it's...uh...it's only 52 votes. Just 52 votes..."

9. I have been involved with politics since I canvassed for
McGovern in Cullman, AL in 1972 (want to talk about some hairy times!), so I understand politics fairly well. This has very little to do with DU or anyone on it. I just do not like the corporate flavor of these particular candidates...

4. One of the advantages to disliking both the remaining candidates
(despite a delightful fantasy about the convention deadlocking and another candidate found) is that I have had time to reconcile myself to the thought that I will be miserable when I cast my vote this November for the Democratic nominee.

Both the Clinton and Obama supporters who swear they won't vote for the other candidate should their candidate not get the nomination should really start trying to reconcile themselves to this idea.

6. Perfect
If you ignore the economy, the war, the health care crisis, the price of oil and food, the housing bust, the stop loss, the supreme court, and the fact that McCain wants to stay in Iraq for 100 years yet isn't sure which people are Shia and which are Sunni, then you really don't need to care, everything is just fine...

8. I completely disagree with you, but whatever. You got to float your
own boat, eh? I would never vote for any republican, ever, not even on a bet, so I really don't know what your saying...

11. Agreed. This election has descended to the level of a badly written farce.
3 "moderates" failing to establish differences between themselves, offering the same old thing, turning to an orgy of shit-slinging to make up for substance.

12. That's exactly it, TyL! It is all names and faces with nothing behind.
Anyway, it really is liberating to simply admit that it doesn't matter who wins the nomination! :hi:
