Voting Republican - Straw Poll from Democrats.org

[Amy6627]

The Michigan Primary may be over, but Republicans aren't any closer to settling on a nominee.

Last night, Mitt Romney beat John McCain and the rest of the Republican candidates in Michigan, securing his first major victory of the primary season. Now three different candidates have won the first four Republican primaries and caucuses -- and Republicans remain confused and divided. But most of all, historically low voter turnout at the Republican primaries shows just how demoralized the Party's faithful have become.

You see, unlike the Democrats, Republicans aren't split because of an abundance of good choices. They're divided because none of their candidates are what they're looking for.

So let's fill in the gap and pick a nominee for them. Vote in the 2008 Democratic Party Republican Straw Poll, and let us know which presidential candidate best represents the values of the Republican Party:
