8. I voted for Bubba the Love Sponge (D) for Sheriff in order to
keep my vow that I would never vote for a Republican again as long as I live. Bozo would be my man too.

4. None of the above
In a race between just Gore and Kerry, I would abstain.

12. I don't have a preference for either one
Edited on Fri Apr-28-06 06:10 PM by TechBear_Seattle
If it were just between Kerry and Gore, why would it matter which one won?

18. But it's still a "thanks for nothing" vote
It certainly doesn't help the Democrats achieve power, and while it may make you feel personally virtuous or pure because you physically went to the polls and voiced your dissatisfaction by selecting NONE OF THE ABOVE in person, all it does is make the line longer, delay the people behind you from voting, and doesn't move us forward.

10. Yep
I think Gore has done better lately, but it may be time for NEW blood in 08.

Toss up between Feingold and Edwards, for me.

14. There is but one real choice.
Gore. No one else can win; they all have Achillies' heels.(right punctuation? sorry). Gore is now nearly untouchable. He is as close to a perfect candidate as we can get.
