I am looking for someone I should support if my guy falls out
I am leaning on Kerry or Dean as my back up. It would be an overwhelming Kerry if he hadnt supported the war and the Patriot Act I can forgive because I know what happened. I also hear Kerry regrets supporting. I like Dean too so no offense to his supporters and I think hes electable but while him and Kerry are simliar on social issues Kerry may not be Gephardt or Kucinich on economics mostly labor but I think he would be better than Dean when it comes to economics. So basically people looking for a back up. Leaning on Kerry at the moment. Since I am a big Kennedy family fan and supporter Teddy Kennedy's endorsement impressed me because Teddy is 1 a great guy and senator and two it seems like he can understand or at least forgive the war vote remember Teddy opposed. Thanks I am all ears. So remember I am for Kucinich still but I am looking for a backup and the two are Kerry and Dean I feel like I am leaning on Kerry more so than Dean I like them both.

2. ok
Although of course I am for Kucinich and I am also an unoffical member of the anyone but Bush crowd too. I am just wondering of those two which could win and IMO I think both for sure can and number two who would be best for me an all around liberal who opposed the war and is Kucinich like on labor etc you all know my views.

3. here's a suggestion...
This is just what I'm doing. I am looking at their names. If their first name is not "George" and their last name is not "Bush", then by and large I support them and I don't feel the need to agonize publicly over it. They can duke it out and as they fall one by one, I will support the survivors until the last one is left. Unless he or she has changed their name to "George Bush", I will vote for whoever remains. Very simple!

6. I Like The Way You Think!
Even though I have a candidate, my ultimate plan is the same as yours: vote for the name with (D) beside it.

4. just gonna "write-in" Al Gore
He already beat bush once.

All we need to win is to force an honest vote count!

I'd vote for my neighbor's dog, instead of any Republican (for any office)

7. I'm supporting Dean, but I DO like Kucinich, too...
I know that here in Cleveland, Dean is being very respectful of Dennis and not doing much campaigning on his home turf. If Kucinich does decide to drop out at some point, we'd love to have you here in the Dean campaign.
