I like Obama, Edwards and Clinton.

I like all of our candidates. Always have. Kucinich was my favorite, followed by Edwards, whom I'm still hoping pulls out the nomination. However, I will GLADLY support either Obama or Clinton, should one of them be the nominee. I like them all. I hate all of the Republican candidates, and all of my venom will be reserved for them. I think the Democrats all have good plans for health care, Iraq, renewable energy and sustainability, and I think all will protect our constitution. I think the Republicans will continue to destroy this country. I will not attack any Democrat in this race. Sorry.

1. I agree with 100%. It's like you read my mind!

I like all the main 3 and wish they could all be president - can we have a triumvirate?

:)

2. Me too. For many of us, this is all about positioning the party's '08 candidate in

in the issues-spectrum.

That's why I'm for John Edwards or Un-committed.

8. I DO hold with manners though. None of this ugliness for me, no matter what the issue. nt

3. This time, I'd vote a booger over any Republican or third party. These times are desperate. nt

6. True, that's how I felt in 2004, but this time, I actually think these

candidates are good, and I can vote for them enthusiastically, not just as the lesser evil!

7. Agree

Our top three are great! So were the others.

9. I agree and, once we have a winner, I hope that...

...every single member who explicitly refuses to support the nominee gets tombstoned. Because that's the equivalent of supporting the GOP.

10. I will be proud to support the eventual nominee

I support Edwards right now, but I won't hesitate to vote for any of the three.

The republicans have no one even close to the abilities and integrity of our Democratic candidates.

(Edit to correct stupid typo)

11. I'm damn proud to be a Democrat this year. We're running a woman, a black, and a populist.

:applause:

Dammit, I can research and think for myself. I could proudly vote for any one of them. I read the papers, I follow Congress, I've read opensecrets.com and I know where my concerns lie.

Not one of my concerns trumps my concern over 4-8 more years fo terrorist foreign policy, screwing the middle class and poor, creating a servant class, or giving my son hope for the greatness of the US again.

Hillary's a "corporatist," Obama's "inexperienced," Edwards is, well--if he were one of the leaders I'm sure I'd know the "proper" term for it. They don't belong to the DC elite who can't see beyond the boardrooms of the oil companies and country clubs.

Not one of them wants to force me into THEIR church or make me support the likes of Bill Gates.

I'm damn proud to be a Democrat.
