Poll question: Which Candidate Should Be the Primary Target of Democrats' Criticism?
It appears that most here feel that it should be either Obama or Hillary. Rationally, one would think it would be McCain since he's the person most likely to stop a Democrat from taking office. Maybe I'm wrong, so I thought I'd post a poll to get other people's reactions.

1. Anyone who says or does otherwise should be called out on it

Someone made a post two months ago asking if we'd see the same kind of aggressive attacks on the republikkan candidate that we've used on each other.

Oddly, the concensus was 'No' we wouldn't. I agreed with the majority, I was just surprised so many people felt the same way.

3. I think part of it is that people just like to argue.
There won't be too many people here defending McCain (though I have seen a few defending him recently). On the other hand, it's pretty easy to get a rise by criticizing Obama or Hillary.

5. That's what I thought too. Apparently some disagree (or else they're just pretending to disagree).

6. Hey... Where's Nader?

Did everyone get too tired of complaining about him in 2000 to want to do it again?

Also, I wish we'd see more of Bob Barr in the news. Someone should be sending him flowers.

7. Oh yeah, I forgot about him.
He might have outpolled Lee Mercer, Jr. and Ron Paul.
