Poll question: Who would get your vote?
What saddens me is that I have no idea how this is going to break down. Hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised. And no "other". No cop outs. You have to pick one.

5. I agree.
It's not as big a difference as I'd like, but it is a difference.

16. You're a good sport!
:)

6 months ago I was anyone but Clinton. Then I was anyone but Obama or Clinton. Then I was, like, 'fuck' I gotta pick one. By the time I got the polls I literally was going to flip a coin. I only showed up to support local Dems. It's been a goofy season, for sure.

6. I'd cry a lot, then get really, really drunk and go vote for Clinton.

9. One of the ways they're the same ...
... is that neither has earned my vote. :shrug:

10. Well I feel somewhat similar. But Bush never could earn my vote.
I see Clinton and Obama as one lump entity that is slightly a hairs breath less evil than Bush. But I do think they are a hairs breath less evil. In a sense it's relative. Compare to DK, for example, they're relatively all the same. I have no admit, I have a very difficult time grasping why Obama would be considered vastly different than Bush but Clinton would be considered nearly the same.

Basically, I hate this election.

11. There's a little difference between the 2, but not much.
I would have to pick Hillary, only because she's not EXACTLY GWB. They work for the same people....and those people are not the average Americans.

15. Hey just trying to bring some harmony to GDP.
Trying to give folks something to rally around. I mean, "anyone but Bush" was good enough last time! It was worth a try.

18. Why is this flamebait?
There have been plenty of polls asking "who would you vote for Clinton or McCain?" And there are people saying that they'd vote for McCain. I'm curious if it is because they really think McCain is a good guy (a maverick, if you will) or if they really think that Clinton is THAT evil--considering that there are very few posters here who believe that Bush is anything less than evil.

19. I may not be a big Hilary Clinton fan, but NO WAY is she just the
same as Bush. No f'ing way.
