1. None of the above
it all depends upon who the candidate is.

Washington Outsiders who ran against incumbent Presidents:

Jimmy Carter - 1976
Ronald Reagan - 1980
Bill Clinton - 1992

2. I really hope Nader doesn't run.
Not just because it will hurt the Dem nominee, but because I'm so tired of his ego-centric pessimism. The man thinks he is God.

5. I think that's rather sad...
stay home on election day just because you don't get Dean?
Vote for Nader?
That's too bad.

6. Christ, do you want us to take a fucking loyalty oath?
So because a few posters here are being whiny about it, now all Dean supporters have to do these idiotic fucking polls?

Would you like a guarentee in blood? Shall I sacrifice my firstborn to prove my loyalty? Indentured servitude? What more proof do the Dean-haters require that the vast majority of Dean supporters will gladly vote Democratic in November?

10. I think Dean should run on a 3rd party ticket ...the DNC sold him out and
he could win with his 15% base and split off bush and kerry supporters

11. I hope to God that you're not serious,

so far he hasn't even won a Democratic primary.

As a 3rd party candidate he'd be lucky to get 10%, and guarantee a legitimate *Bush victory, probably even landslide.

13. No, he wants you to answer a poll
Can't you tell the difference between a loyalty oath and a poll?
