Pick Your Candidate

[Prophet 451]

Poll question: Pick Your Candidate

No arguement necessary here, just a quick straw poll of how DU is feeling right now. Pick the candidate you would vote for in the primary (Gore not included since he's not declared and I'm increasingly thinking he won't):

1. What about Al Gore?

IMHO he's the best we have.

[Prophet 451]

4. Hasn't declared

And as I said, I'm increasingly on the opinion that he won't run. He might well be the best option but right now, I'm sticking to the ones we know are running.

17. Okay then when did Wesley Clark declare?

Because he's in this poll.

18. I already held my hands up on that one

See posts below. That was a mistake on my part, I was under the impression that Clark had declared.

20. Agree

He needs to be persuaded. If that can't or won't happen, I'm having a really rough time deciding.

Simply getting a Democratic administration into the WH won't be enough. Eight years of damage needs to be undone. I'm not convinced that any of the other candidates are capable of that.

5. Do you want us to pick the guy we want or the guy who does best in the general election???

John Edwards polls the best in the general elections straw polls done.

6. pick the guy/gal you want

[Prophet 451]

7. The one you would vote for in the primary

Whether your choice includes a calculation of their odds in the general is up to you.

9. Edwards

10. when did clark declare?

did i miss something?

[Prophet 451]

12. Um, not sure but I might have done

This may be my bad, I was under the impression that he had declared.

14. i would love to see a gore/clark ticket but, as far as i know

neither one of them have declared. i have not voted in this poll. if clark has declared i would be leaning toward him. i would rather see him as veep under gore.

[Prophet 451]

15. Thanks

I'm not going to edit Clark out since someone has already voted for him but I obviously shouldn't have included him. Thanks for pointing it out.

11. Do we really need two of these going at the same time?
