Poll question: Clarkies: Who are you supporting now?
Now that the General has decided to hold onto his helmet rather than throw it in the ring, who are you supporting in the primary?

I'm asking this because I don't have a clue, so I won't even be voting in my own poll. :)

(In alphabetical order)

1. Not 100% sure, except to say it won't be Clinton. nt

2. Yeah - I don't think Clark's endorsement carried over
too much... but apparently in this poll it has (thus far).

11. It didn't carry over to Kerry right away, either.

I recall that a lot of Clark supporters (I am one) were reluctant to support Kerry after Clark dropped out, even though Clark obviously threw his full support behind Kerry.

Edit: typo

15. Nah. It's 29% for Clinton, and 71% against her...
little carryover.

3. Heavily leaning towards John Edwards.
My heart goes with Dennis, but my mind tells me the best bet is Sen Edwards.

HRC? Not a fucking chance....

I love DK, but John has it 100% right in his focus on the poor working class schlubs who have gone too long without a voice. I'm right there with him.

7. "No Freakin' Clue"
Because "No Freakin' Clue" didn't vote for the IWR, doesn't take money from federal lobbyists, and is more electable than Kucinich. :evilgrin: :hide:

9. No freakin' clue. I'm waiting for Gore, if he doesn't run I guess I'll draw a name out of a hat!

12. "No Freakin' Clue" has the most votes.
Hey, "No Freakin' Clue" best describes all of the GOP candidates -- why support Republicans? ;-)

13. I love your sig photo, I have a pix for you along the same lines
This woman is American, and this man is Iranian, she doesn't speak Farsi and he doens't speak English. They attend a language course together and communicate in German. They are best friends at school.

This too, is a symbol of peace.

23. sorry to be stupid, what is BFF?
:hug: back at you too! We actually have friends, the wife is Iranian and the husband is Jewish, and they are such wonderful people. I can't imagine them being with anyone else. If we could only get the corrupt politicians out of some situations, I think people could work things out themselves, but there is this layer of stink on top of everything. :shrug:

16. No clue.
When one sets his heart on a national treasure like Wes Clark, that passel of dwarfs morphs into a formless, gibbering mass of porridge.

Sinistrous

17. I was 95% convinced Clark was my guy before he dropped out.
Last week I decided to vote for Kucinich in the primary. Something inside me snapped--I saw how the Dems in DC were behaving and I decided, strategy be damned. Clinton is going to get the nomination, so why waste my vote "strategically"? This is my one chance to vote for someone who agrees with me on a lot of issues. So I'm gonna.

27. There's no way enough of us can do that
It's a neat idea--like Nader Trading in 2000--but it would need an enormous amount of momentum to work.

OTOH, if Kucinich grabs even 7% of the primary vote the party will have to change its tune.

19. Not sure yet, except NOT Hillary.
Leaning towards Edwards but I could drift towards Obama, maybe; depending. Still waiting for a reason to get excited about somebody.

22. There was no "anybody but Joementum/Republican" choice so I picked
Clinton.

My first choice would be Al Gore, but he decided not to show.

I hope Clark will be Hillary's choice for V.P.
