Poll question: Is Your Opinion On A Candidate Going To Change Between Now And January?
Will anything anyone says on this forum change who you might vote for in the primaries?

1. It would seem very unlikely. I have several I like a lot, a couple who I am
ambivalent about, and one or so I don't like much at all. That seems unlikely to change.

2. if the person I hate in the primaries is in the general I will sing his/her praises!
take that to the bank (might I suggest somewhere in europe, since it won't be worth much in us dollars)

4. I have to say maybe since I'm not on board with anyone yet
Some are rising to the top and some are dropping like stones (and it's their behavior NOW that I'm paying attention to). I'll be happy w/any of them for our next President, so it's what they do in the next 45 days that will help me make up my mind who to caucus for.

5. My first choice is "a long shot".
So, yes, I am still trying to decide who is the most qualified and effective. By the time my primary arrives, if it is still undecided it will be a very exciting primary season.

6. My opinion changes at least daily
and probably will until I'm in the election booth during the primary, flipping a coin.

No, the coin toss doesn't decide anything, I just generally make up my alleged mind by the time it lands.

7. My voting strategy has changed a lot in the last month
Edited on Mon Nov-19-07 04:05 PM by FreeState
My voting strategy has changed a lot in the last month so it could easily change again.

I have always been a big Kucinich supporter. Next in line was Obama, then Edwards and anyone but Clinton.

Now after what I have read watched and studied its changed to:

Kucinich, Clinton and then anyone but Obama or Edwards.

8. Maybe. I hope so. I'd hate to think that I'd learn nothing between now and then.
Too bad the MSM doesn't report on campaigns adequately to allow most Americans to change their minds based on what they can learn.

10. My vote is late in the primaries so events could influence my vote.
I pretty much know who I could vote for and who I could not.

11. I am set
I have a first choice, Obama, two that are at the bottom and not likely to move out of the basement, a strong second, and the rest. If Obama falters for some reason I go to second choice.

12. Considering that mine changes day to day between 3, I would say a very definite yes to that.
I voted maybe.

Gah! How'd I find my way to GD/P?!

'Bye!

14. Barring any major scandals, no
But if there are any, the candidates are waiting until just before Iowa to reveal them, that's for sure.
