I will never vote for Hillary Clinton!!!! Not in this lifetime. I will abstain from voting or

[Pisces]

I will write in Barack Obama's name. I have to look at myself in the mirror and sleep at night. I also have to teach my children that you don't do whatever it takes to win. She is not what we need leading our country.
Flame away, I don't care. I reiterate again I will not vote for her.

[K Gardner]

1. You are not alone. I've heard the same sentiment over and over, not just here.

[Mme. Defarge]

2. No true patriot

ever rubber-stamps a one-party system.

[msallied]

3. Hear Hear! n/t

[mcctatas]

36. I guess I take the utilitarian long view...

perhaps by abstaining from voting you might increase the level of happiness (or at least selfish egoism) in your own life, but if that action results in a McCain win and lessens the total amount of happiness (or heightens the total amount of suffering) to a greater number of people...the rest of the country and half the fucking world...it's a douchebag move. I don't like her, I hate that I might be forced to yet again make a choice between the lesser of two evils, but sometimes life is a shit sandwich!

[Mme. Defarge]

49. With respect,

I believe that Mr. Franklin had the long view when he stated, “Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.”

There is a time to be pragmatic, but not when core principles are at stake. We've had two stolen elections, our election process is broken, our Constitution and civil liberties are in shambles, and two of the remaining Presidential candidates have been bought and paid to defend the status quo. You are right -- if we live to see another day there may still be hope that things could change in the future. A future election(?) or a future generation might change things. Where would YOU draw the line?

[mcctatas]

54. I guess thoughtful people can disagree...

my principles aren't worth (to me anyway) allowing a dangerous man like McCain in the WH. If there was no war in Iraq, no threats of attacking Iran, no danger of having another extreme right supreme court appointee, no crippling debt or crumbling infrastructure then I would gladly show my disgust with the party by staying home or writing in my candidates name, as things stand, I cannot in good concience do that this time around...but if you have a different belief system, I can't change it and will respect you for standing on principles....

[Mme. Defarge]

56. With a little luck, mon ami,

"This time ..." our candidate, and next President, will be Obama.

[mcctatas]

63. mais oui mademoiselle

Amen sister!

[Downtown Hound]

4. And I am with you on this. n/t

[The_Casual_Observer]

5. Who cares?

[TahitiNut]

37. Insightful retort, Mr. Cheney.

:eyes:

[Danger Mouse]

6. I know how you feel, but I can't agree with that.

McCain is just too foul...he can't be allowed to win.

[mcg]

33. Neither can I, we cannot have more of the same from McCain. n/t

[PatGund]

7. I will vote for the Democratic Nominee this november

If there is no Democrat running, then I will vote for Sen. Clinton.

[Poll_Blind]

8. "If there is no Democrat running, then I will vote for Sen. Clinton."

WTF is that supposed to mean- or is it as obvious what you're implying?

PB

[PatGund]

12. It's quite obvious.

I will vote for the Democratic Nominee.

If there is no Democrat in the race and the choice is between GOP and GOP-Lite (aka the DLC), then I will vote for the GOP-Lite nominee (Sen. Clinton)

[Poll_Blind]

24. Sorry, grossly misunderstood ya!

PB

[Straight Shooter]

9. So what. n/t

[PFunk]

10. After this I wont either. However....

I will now work like crazy to make sure dems win a majority in both the house and senate to make sure the GE winner either follows an progressive path or check his ass big time if he doesn't.

Remember folks. In 08 the house and senate also matter.

[jody]

11. Sadly, many fair-weather Dems may join you in not voting for the ultimate Dem candidate, HC or BO.

With friends like those,the Democratic Party may be doomed to lose the White House for decades.

[quakerboy]

26. There is a whole

generation waiting in the wings. Will we bring them into the Democratic Party, or will we release them to apathy?

[jody]

41. IMO, every true member of the Democratic party would vote for the Dem candidate, whether BO or HC.

[Hepburn]

42. Hillary or Obama???

There is only ONE Dem in that duo and it sure as hell is NOT Hillary.

I would not vote for her if she were the ONLY name on the ballot.

[jody]

47. That's your decision but such acts identify fair-weather Dems, not members of the Democratic Party.

[Hepburn]

61. No, Jody, dear....

...that's the difference between REAL Democrats and Hillbots. If she told you to sacrifice your first born for Joe LIEberman, IMO, most of you would.

Again, I will not vote for her under any circumstances.

[jody]

64. I see we disagree on what it means to be a member of the Democratic Party. Have a good day. n/t

[Mags]

55. hey Hepburn, do you have a black schnauzer?

[TheWraith]

13. I understand why you feel that way, but think twice.

Yes, the whole Republican Lite campaign is pretty disgusting. It's getting to the point where it's not even that "Lite" anymore. But remember Senator Strangelove is the Repub nominee.

Either way, though, I don't think you're going to need to worry. Short of alien invasion or sniper fire, Obama has a lock.

[KAZ]

14. You may feel different;y later. Understand your anger.

[scot]

15. I'm interested in what changed your mind.

Assuming that you've not been sour on her since the '90s, the possibility of which I would not discount. What was the proverbial straw?

[Pisces]

30. I was always a Clinton supporter, however this campaign has changed my mind,

It started in South Carolina, progressed from there. I went sideways with the 60 min comments "As far as I know" and the recent Rev Wright indignation as well as Bittergate have added to my disgust. I can pinpoint the final straw to her saying that she and McCain had passed the commander in chief test. Endorsing the Republican over the Dem is way to dirty. I no longer respect her, who cares if I like her. She does not represent me as a woman, or a leader.

[scot]

44. Does your anger extend to her husband as well?

[gabby garcia]

16. ditto.

[StevieM]

17. Not the best thing for an Obama supporter to say if they want to convince a Clinton supporter

to vote for Obama if he is the nominee.

Steve

[KAZ]

21. Nobody here is trying to convince you of anything.

Go look for feet kissing some place else, pal. How about 800-SUCKMYTOE. Dial MORRIS for an outside line.

[onehandle]

18. Enjoy President McCain. nt

20. Go McBush!!!

Another 4 years of idiocy. Thanks Pisces.

I for one will vote for whom ever will be the Democratic nominee.

[mmonk]

22. If she ends up the nominee through the knee cap and republican

ally way, I'll still vote for her and the democrats in November. After that though, I'll probably go unaffiliated. It will be tough considering I'm a democratic party delegate right now. ANYONE and EVERYONE should be ashamed at questioning him as to his patriotism and whether he loves his country on national television. That was a DISGRACE. That was pure neo nazi SHIT. Thanks for listening.

[grantcart]

23. you wont have to

[Diane R]

25. I agree...I decided that a long time ago. If HRC is on the ballot, I'll write in Obama.

[MannyGoldstein]

27. Don't Sweat It - Obama Has Won

You can get anxious again in 4 years.

[emilyg]

28. I don't care!!!!!

[Webster Green]

29. Don't brag about it in the re-education camps when McCain wins..

Just lie, and say that you voted for the dem.:smoke:

[TragedyandHope]

31. I will vote for the Democratic candidate

Of course, that candidate will be Barack Obama.

[yodermon]

32. I do *not* want Scalia's claws in my daughters' uterus, thanks.

[Pale Blue Dot]

34. So it would be better for you to have McCain in office, choosing Supreme Court justices,

then to have someone in office who matches Obama's policies and experiences almost word for word?

[eridani]

35. You also have to think about SCOTUS!

Jeezus, people--get a grip here!

[depakid]

39. Emotions get the better of people sometimes

and reason has a hard time sneaking in....

[Bluebear]

38. !!!!!!1111!!!!!!!!1

[ps1074]

40. You won't have to

She'll drop out after NC and IN.

[IsItJustMe]

43. I have to take a shower everytime I see her. It woun't be long until I will be throwing my TV out,

because of her.

[bunkerbuster1]

45. Eh, fuck off.

I support Barak but I'd never leave a dumb shit post like this in an online forum, no matter how pissed off I might be.

[BlooInBloo]

46. Anyone not voting for the Democratic nominee is a fucking jackass.

[invictus]

48. I would do the same is Hillary somehow won, but she wont win. Obama has already won.

At this point, Hillary is just trying to kneecap our progressive candidate out of her own jealousy and petty vindictiveness and because the corporate media and anti-progressive forces cheer her on.

[FlaGranny]

50. It would "kill" me to have to vote for her.

I'm not sure I could. I know my husband won't. All this time I've been telling him he HAS to vote for Clinton if she is the nominee. Now I don't even know if I can do it myself. Every day she makes me angrier. I had the distinct impression that she was prepped in advance for some of that stuff in the interview (not going to call it a debate cause they didn't debate about anything). She had the knife ready to twist. Twist the knife and unleash that "sweet" smile afterwards as if to try to convince us that she didn't really twist that knife, no, not her.

[gauguin57]

51. Well, it's a free country. Vote for whomever you want. But THANKS A LOT, in advance ...

... for aiding and abetting the continued disintegration of our country. If your lack of a vote for the nominated Democratic candidate helps McCain gain the presidency, we'd might as well all go down to our local Democratic HQ's and drink the poisoned Kool-Aid and put ourselves out of our misery before the country completely goes down the toilet.

Thanks. A bunch. In advance.

[leftynyc]

52. When you finish your temper tantrum

You may feel differently - unless, of course, you don't see a difference between Hillary and John McCain which would mean you're completely beyond help.

[butterfly77]

53. I was wondering this myself...

can we do a write-in for Obama? If she steals it..

[paulk]

57. I sure wish Al Gore and John Kerry

had done "whatever it takes to win".

ps - I hope you get kicked off this board for this thread.

[dpbrown]

58. Enjoy your short stay at DU

:hi:

[RogueTrooper]

59. then you're a fucking idiot

[undeterred]

60. She is revolting.

[HullBoss]

62. How does four years of John McCain make you feel better??
