If sanders gets the nom, I will vote for him. If biden gets the nom, I will vote for him...

if warren gets the nom, I will vote for her. if mayor pete gets the nom, I will vote for him.

I will support any dem candidate. I choose not to get involved in mud fights on here. I find them all so very amusing.

draw your battle lines, take your ball home, stamp your feet over blah blah blah is unfair or he or she did this so therefore they are a big meanie.

at the end of the day, when I go into that voting booth, whomever is at the top of the ticket for the Democrats, I will vote for them.

if you are so ridiculous as to put your ego and jealously before the fate of our nation, then I think you need to truly reexamine your priorities.

this isn't hyperbole. the fate of our Democracy is at stake and we have to get the orange asshole out of office. Because, if he gets in and we don't take back the senate, we have become a fascist nation. and if that happens, I can at lease say, with a clear conscious, as the fascist pigs round us up, and the most certainly will; I stayed true to what this nation once stood for. will you be able to say that to yourself?

so mud sling all you want, get all bent out of shape over who said what and who did what now all you want, but come election day, if you don't vote Democratic straight ticket, you are to blame and should be ashamed.

Now please attack me all you want, I don't give a whit.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:

Some I like better than others but it doesn't matter. My favorite candidate is Not D. Trump. Anybody who values their own precious little snowflake "conscience" more than the future of this country can go piss up a rope and do all those other anatomically impossible things. They are not our friends any more than Trumpers are our friends.

Not a good look for a Democrat. I do not know what I will do but the pressure is a real turn off to participating at all.

... and that's who we have to convince.

Obama nearly in the same place as Sanders but Sanders does not have Obama appeal to Obama or non Obama coalition.

too.

Just vote blue.

Be passionate now about your candidate, but remember we'll all need to vote for the eventual nominee and there will only be one, that means a lot of us will be disappointed.

Honestly: anyone not named Trump is who I will vote for. I have a preference but that doesn't mean that if my favorite is not the nominee that I just won't vote. I'm not that senile. People really need to get a grip here.

Blue - vote blue. Whatever drives you - vote the party line.

I'm driven by my wallet.
Some are driven by heart, justice, ethics, etc etc.

When it comes down to GE - vote the line.
