Poll question: Rudy vs. Hillary, DU vs. FR
I don't venture over into FR, but I am under the impression that Rudy plays as well over there as Hillary does here.

In the unlikely event that Democrats nominate Hillary and Republicans nominate Rudy...
who will *generally* be more upset, make more threats about not voting or voting 3rd party, etc?

1. I don't believe two New York State office holders will be the first
choices of their party's primary voters.

I think Sen. Clinton and Mayor Giuliani meet their Waterloo (!) in Iowa.

8. We Need Some Council....
We need some Council (not Bluffs) on your suggested possibility.

Much appreciated, and again, welcome.

4. Actually, Pat Robertson likes Rudy
He has given the go ahead for his members to vote for him. Robertson still hates McCain.

They are sell outs! They don't care what Rudy believes, they just want to keep their power!

7. Robertson is senile and doesn't have the power that he used to
Dobson, Donahue, and Falwell are the guys that really have the real pull with the religious wrong.

5. Repubs will rally
around Rudy big time. Rudy is flip flopping on all the social issues to appease them and the personal dirty baggage of candidates only upsets Repubs when it pertains to Democrats.

6. I personally would not vote for anybody on either party's agenda
It's early still but which ever party trotted out a bonofide real live populist, they would get my vote but more important, they would get the benefit of my effort and my time.

A Dem. DLC/AIPAC candidate gets the same hohum response as anything the Reptilians are offering.

It's all about me and us as a collective. Clinton, Edwards, Clark, Obama, Kooky-niche.....I just can't get excited but I want to.

I like DK by the way, I just fear the results if he were to win the primary. He has no street cred and our candidate is going to need that.

9. I voted for Hilary twice
However, in the primary I am leaning towards Edwards or Obama. If Hillary wins the nod, I will vote for her, hands down over Rudy.

12. I think both will be upset, but
I think Dems will still hold their noses and vote for Hillary and Repubs will hold their noses and vote for Rudy.
