Poll question: Edwards supporters...your second choice for President?
I was wondering about Edwards supporters and their second choice for President.

Edwards may go all the way and win it. Who knows. However, I'm wondering
which candidate is most likely to garner your support, if he is not the winner.

1. Kucinich
That is, if he's actually allowed to appear on the Texas primary ballot.

2. Write him in
Fuck these corporatists for trying to kick him off the ballot and out of the debates.

3. Edwards anymore is my first and only choice
I would like to know who Clinton or Obama supporters would pick as a second choice if their first choice drops out. Will they pick Edwards, who will get their support? I'm feeling like the Clinton and Obama supporters are like vulturs just waiting to pick the bones of us Edwards people. x(

4. No such thing as a 2nd choice
It's Edwards all the way. He's the only candidate who can bring real change, and the only one who can beat the Rethugs. I don't see myself voting for anyone else.

6. Obama is my 2nd choice.
I started with DK as my primary but they way he is getting treated, simply by telling the truth and being honest, is ridiculous and terrible.

I would still vote for DK, but I made my choice and I am sticking to it: Edwards.

10. Other: Any Dem that will lend a hand to pull this nation out of the toilet?
I'll vote HRC if I must because I simply can't stand the thought of more RRRepublican rule. Regardless of the DU conventional wisdom, she isn't the second coming of Reagan, even if she's many steps away from ideal.
