I live in Ohio and am in a bit of a quandry. I do not care very much for McCain, but will probably hold my nose and vote for him in November if he chooses a true conservative as a running mate.
The fact that I hate Hillary and Obama is without question.
My quandry is this: McCain has the Republican nomination, so I'm thinking about voting for Hillary to help keep her in the race. From my perspective, keeping her in the race will severely damage the dimmocrap party for months to come.
It may also lead to Obama supporters staying home in November if she wins the dimmocrap nod.
The problem is, if she wins, I will not be able to sleep for four years.
Since voting is done by a secret ballot it can not be used as evidence against you and will not appear to your Permanent record. It you can stand the personal anguish I would make the personal sacrifice and do the dirty deed.
Politically speaking, CLINTON = OBAMA = MCCAIN.
They are all going to take us to the same end one way or another.
So voting for Huckabee 'as a protest vote' is voting for who you want??!!! Boy are you all confused!
YES
I urge you and your friends not to tamper with their election believing the longer they battle the better for us. If it continues, she will be the nominee. From a New Yorker, who heard she couldn't win the State because of her carpetbagger status, let me assure you they will do whatever is necessary to claw their way back into the WH.
I would love to see the DEMS fighting to the end and making it impossible for them to win. It is just this fear I have that Hillary would manage to win if she were the nominee and she puts Obama on her ticket.
“according to what youre saying, obama should actually hurt her chances if he is VP. Shed probably go with wesley clark to shore up her national security credentials. or perhaps some other white guy so as not to rock things up too much.”
No, that is not what I said. My fear is that if Hillary were the nominee she would pick Obama as VP to secure a win in November. If she didn’t choose Obama, I believe the Obama fans would not vote for Hillary/Clarke.
I don't see her picking him as VP. There'd be too much temptation by the teeming hordes of Obama supporters to bump her off. (Don't think she isn't thinking the same thing!)
Likewise, he won't put her on as VP. Clinton Inc could bump HIM off.
Aren't democRATs lovely people?
That's right. I want the rats to OWN the failure, not point at our RINO and blame the it on us.
I agree. Take out Hillary first!
The only good reason I can think of to vote for Hitlery is it’s better for America in the long run for things to get screwed up with a RAT in office than with a Republican, even a liberal one. Rat equals short-term pain, long-term gain; liberal Republican equals very long-term pain.

I understand what your saying... but why have we been reduced to holding our nose to vote. I don’t buy any of the candidates the global elites have foisted upon us. If we really wanted to, we could rally around a good candidate and either write him in or vote third party. The two party system is definately corrupted.
DROP THE HOUSE, OHIO.
JUST DROP THE FREEPIN’ HOUSE.
IMHO, stay out of it. Its not your primary.
Limbaugh is insane. Voting for these swine ‘to keep chaos alive’ is like using nitro to put out a fire. I voted for Obama today, and against all taxes.
I crossed over and voted for Obama, as you are absolutely correct.
The entire history of the Donkey Party in presidential races is one of closing ranks
YES!!! At least SOMEBODY remembers!
I voted for The Magic Negro today. Did all I can do, now we wait.
That goofball said she couldn’t possibly win a senator seat, and also said she wasn’t going to run for president. Think he also said she wouldn’t win re-election as senator.
BILL AND Hillary as the nomineeS. There, fixed. Between the media, love for Bill and the vagina vote, they’re back in in a heartbeat if they get the nod. I’m telling you right now, thanks to RHINO Bob Taft’s liberalism , arrogance,taxation, and corruption, Ohio is probably lost to the GOP for at minimum a decade. Many people, especially dems, will NOT vote for a black, though. That’s why Obama getting the nomination is the only chance we’ve GOT. Remember I said this.
