Maybe I'm hopelessly naive, but I Don't Understand
Edited on Wed Oct-31-07 08:06 PM by Mike03
Why is it dangerous to vote for the candidate I really believe in for the primaries?

Some posters have suggested this is somehow dangerous to the major three candidates, but I don't understand why.

1. Because the fix is in and it won't work right if too many people
vote the way they believe instead of doing what they are told.

3. Vote your conscience
The vote is one of the rights we still have left in this country. Now whether it's counted is another matter for another thread, but you are entitled to vote for the candidate of your choice. Democracy requires it.

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

4. Because They Want You to Give Up on Your Candidate and Vote for THEIR Candidate

5. No reason. I've never seen anyone suggest that, and I don't know why anyone would.
