Republicans In Search of the Weaker Democrat

OK folks, time for the definitive answer...Who would you prefer to see as 'Rat nominee in November?

[madison10]

Darn, the Dems make it so difficult to choose the worst of the two...

(although Jeremiah Wright is doing just great)

[Libloather]

Republican strategists have delighted over the prospect of facing off with Hillary Clinton, believing that she would be easier to beat than her Democratic rival, Barack Obama.

Keep CHAOS alive!

[GVnana]

A Rat, is a Rat, is a Rat.

[Brilliant]

I don’t know if it’s clear who the weaker Dem is.

[Balding_Eagle]

I think that we also have to consider which of the two we would rather see in the WH if McCain loses.

[flowerplough]

Obama will likely recover somewhat from “God damn the U S of KKK A!!”, while Hillary and her queen-ish baggage train brings out a whole nation of rural “broken glass Republicans” who’ll crawl for miles to vote for any Republican opposing her. Hillary’s the weaker of the two.

[csmusaret]

Brokered convention nominates Elizabeth Edwards. Oh well, you asked who I prefer.

[hunter112]

Simple answer: keep them fighting, and whoever emerges will be the weaker for it. Vote Obama, and he gets many months to heal the rift.

So, my conclusion is to vote Hillary wherever possible, keep the Witch's crazy argument going about primary votes being more important than elected delegates, and if she loses, so does Al Gore's 2000 'selected not elected' mantra.

There is no advantage of having a GOP socialist defeat a Democrat socialist.

[sport]

Obama, for any number of reasons would be easier to defeat in the General Election than Hillary.

But there are many who want to inflict Hillary on us again.

I think you are correct. Obama's got far more sympathetic members in the "mainstream" (*cough*) media than Shrillary ever will.

[Digital Sniper]

There is no advantage of having a GOP socialist defeat a Democrat socialist.

Indeed. Especially when that GOP socialist has made it plain that he only intends to work with Democrats while he sticks knives in the backs of other Republicans.

[paudio]

I don't want to make any prediction. I remember Al Gore said in one interview, "In 1980, we were so sure that if Reagan was the Republican nominee, Carter would be re-elected!"

Having said this, I'm glad that Operation Chaos have prolonged their primaries.

[Azzurri]

Obama is CLEARLY the weaker of the two. Race is a factor. There are many more skeletons in his closet that haven’t been fully vetted yet, either. Hillary will hold all the traditional Democrat voters while Barack will lose many more than he gains.

[sport]

I agree with your assessment and would add that thy are many racist Democrats who will not vote for a Black candidate. And the other factors are that Hillary is better organized and has her 5th column already in the Government. Hillary is much more evil and ruthless. Why so many who claim to be Conservatives want to inflict the Clintons on us again is what I can't understand.

[prairiebreeze]

There’s PLENTY of democrat animosity toward Hillary Clinton. Two lib friends of mine informed me last week they will not vote for her. Obama isn’t even being considered by them.

The way they were talking, McCain will get their vote.

[Diggity]

I think Clinton would be the easiest now after this Bosnia deal.

I would just run that tape over and over and over of her lying about the trip.

If she would lie about something so inconsequential as that how could anyone ever believe her about anything??

John

[Diggity]

That’s why I am glad McCain is the nominee. He could end up winning in a landslide if Clinton is the Dumbacrat candidate.

John

"I continue to believe that Obama would be the stronger Democratic candidate," Davis said.

BINGO !!!
