Which Democrat would you vote for?

If the 2008 election was held this November, which Democratic candidate would you vote for and why?

Thumbs up Re: Which Democrat would you vote for?

I am going to vote for Hillary Clinton! I think she represents the common person and I like the fact that she is real.

She has a proven track record as a Senator and has been involved with her husband's campaigns for years.

She is for bringing our troops home as soon as possible. She proclaimed that she would make that her top priority once elected; however, I think she is the toughest of the candidates and will be the strongest off all if we were ever to be attacked again.

Re: Which Democrat would you vote for?

First off, the above statement that 'she is for bringing the troops home as soon as possible' isn't really specific to Hillary. Every single politician on both sides would probably agree that ASAP is a good idea for troop reduction/withdrawl. The distinctions start coming into play when the perception of 'as possible' changes depending on the politician. Another reason this is not a good reason to vote for a candidate, is once the new president is brought into the fold of information and daily briefings on the actual ground-truth in Iraq...that will be the deciding factor on a troop withdrawl...not simply because they are liberal or republican.

All that aside...

I would vote for Hillary (can't believe I said that). Even though she is evil, a hypocrite, and a lot of other things I don't like. She is aggressive, bottom line. And if we are to have a democratic president, I'll take an aggressive one with at least some degree of experience in foreign policy. Even though i don't agree with anything she stands for, where she has come from, and who her 'mentors' have been...if I had to pick I'd choose her. Obama scared me with the Pakistan statement, and all the other candidates are eiter too inexerienced, too crazy, or just plain worse choices than Hillary.

I would vote for Dennis Kucinich because he is the only honest one of them(besides Mike Gravel). The others are so bought and paid for it isn't even funny.

However, that being said...I'm voting Republican for Ron Paul...he more closely aligns with my beliefs and is the ONLY honest Republican candidate.
